Scarweather (British Library Crime Classics) by Anthony Rolls
In 1913, John Farringdale, with his cousin Eric Foster, visits the famous archaeologist Togen Reisby, at Scarweather -- Reisby's lonely house on the windswept northern coast of England. Eric is quickly attracted to Reisby's much younger wife, and matters soon turn dangerous. Fifteen years later, the final scene of the drama is enacted.
This unorthodox novel from 1934 is by a gifted crime writer who, wrote Dorothy L. Sayers, "handles his characters like a real novelist and the English language like a real writer -- merits which are still, unhappily, rarer than they should be in the ranks of the murder specialists.
