Another title from Crime Classics series favourite E. C. R. Lorac. The rural plot features a report of sheep stealing which leads a holidaying Inspector Macdonald (a regular Lorac protagonist) to a case involving arson, what looks to be murder and illegal smuggling across the moors. Renowned for its authentic characters and settings based partly on the author’s own experiences of life in the Lune valley, E. C. R. Lorac’s classic rural mystery returns to print for the first time since 1953.
