Cyanide in the Sun

All about them, happy holiday-makers were strolling and laughing, evidently oblivious of the prevailing perils of their chosen resort. A cold case of poisonings heats up at a quaint guest house. A string of suspicious murders follows a crime writer's tour bus. Two seedy stowaways uncover an infamous smuggling ring. Everyone needs a break now and then but sometimes getting away from it all can be murder. Martin Edwards presents a jam-packed travel case of 18 mysteries, featuring short stories from crime legends, such as Christianna Brand, Anthony Berkeley and Ethel Lina White, alongside more obscure writers revived in this anthology. Grab your ticket for a journey from the classic 1920s seaside holiday to the 1980s homebody's dream - this volume is perfect for an armchair reverie or a summer getaway.
