Series Roderick Alleyn 06
Note Originally published: U.K. : Geoffrey Bles, 1938.
Summary Note In the movies, it’s known as a meet cute. But for Inspector Alleyn and Miss Agatha Troy, it’s more like irritation. On the ship back to England, she finds him tedious and dull; he thinks she’s a bohemian cliché. They may be destined for romance, but there’s a murder in the way. No sooner has Alleyn settled in to his mother’s house, eager for a relaxing end to his vacation, than he gets a call that a model has been stabbed at the artist’s community down the road. And wouldn’t you know it: the artistic Miss Troy is one of the community’s most prominent and outspoken members.
