Murder at the Nook: A Chief Inspector Pointer Mystery


Book Description

A Chief Inspector Pointer Mystery The house known as The Nook would have been a perfect place for the newly wedded Layngs to live while awaiting the completion of the house they built. Perfect, that is, except for the body of a young woman found under the kitchen floor while the couple are moving in. The corpse, whose identification is made uncertain by the injuries to the face and the several months the body had lain there before being discovered, appears to be of someone well known to the family, though oddly, Douglas Layng disputes this. All this leaves Chief Inspector Pointer the task of unraveling the usual mysteries of why and when and how the victim was murdered, but possibly also who the victim really was.




Pointer to a Crime


Book Description

A Chief Inspector Pointer Mystery! Chief Inspector Pointer finds himself looking into the suspected suicide of the owner of a chain of high-end hair dressing salons. The only thing suspicious about the death is a tenuous link to the earlier brutal murder of a woman at a cottage called The Clearing in Lincolnshire. The clues in that case are sparse, and while there are suspects, none would seem to have a motive strong enough to fit the nature of the crime, and none of them had any connection the subject of his own investigation. The inspector, however, becomes convinced that there is a connection, and that to solve his own case, he must first solve the earlier murder.




The Paper Chase


Book Description

A Chief Inspector Pointer Mystery It began simply enough, a group of strangers on holiday meeting at a winter resort in the Italian Tirol. Within a matter of hours, though, after their return to England, one of their number would be dead, another missing, and the rest under suspicion of murder and other crimes. Was the death of the young woman found shot in the flat of the missing man merely a case of a holiday romance gone wrong? Or had the woman, whose life had seemed as mysterious as her death, been involved in some international criminal scheme involving counterfeit Bank of England notes? These are the questions that Chief Inspector Pointer must answer to resolve the mystery of The Paper Chase.




The Case of the Missing Diary: A Chief Inspector Pointer Mystery


Book Description

A Chief Inspector Pointer Mystery Charles Dawnay was a devoted husband, a loving father, and an honest and successful man of business. His one quirk, if it could be called that, was that he kept a meticulous diary in which he noted every appointment and encounter both past and future. Therefore, when his body was found with its head bashed in, the police had every hope that the diary might provide a clue as to who the last person to see him alive might be, as that person might well prove to be the murderer. However, when the diary is examined, it proves to be written in an indecipherable code. When Chief Inspector Pointer is called in to handle the case, he quickly determines that the diary found on the body is not the one kept by the murdered man, but a substitute. The search is on for the real diary, for only its recovery will allow Pointer to solve . . . The Case of the Missing Diary

The Wedding-Chest Mystery


Book Description

It was to be a fitting centerpiece of the Chinese themed suite in the new home of the financier, Boyd Armstrong, an ornate Chinese wedding chest, a gift of the explorer Major Hardy. When the chest is opened at the party held for the unveiling of the chest, to the surprise and horror of all those in attendance, the chest was found to contain the body of their host, victim of a gunshot to the head. Chief Inspector Pointer is promptly called in, but he finds himself presented with a baffling puzzle. Not only must he discover who amongst the many suspects killed Armstrong, he must first discover where he was killed, and how (and why) his body came to be placed in the wedding chest when the chest was either under observation or within the locked suite the entire time. The Wedding-Chest Mystery is one of the most intriguing of the Inspector Pointer mysteries.




Death of John Tait: A Chief Inspector Pointer Mystery


Book Description

When John Tait collapses in front of the house of his step-mother, it is first assumed to be due to a heart attack. But when Chief Inspector Pointer is called to the scene, he quickly comes to suspect poison, a suspicion that is borne out by the autopsy. Pointer finds himself confronted with plenty of suspects, the three cousins who stood to lose a comfortable life by Tait's imminent marriage, a vengeful Italian woman who has vowed a vendetta against his step-mother, a mysterious young woman who may well be a blackmailer who has insinuated herself into the household. There is also the fact that Tait's business associate had died the previous day in what might be a case of either suicide or murder. But the case of John Tait's death will prove to be much more complicated than even these possibilities hint at.
