The Man at the Walpole Bay Hotel - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

1914 is going to be a momentous year. World War 1 is declared, Britain is gripped by 'spymania,' and Robson the barman at the Walpole Bay Hotel has invented a new cocktail: the Walpole Bay Slammer.
Meanwhile a murdered German diplomat is found in a London flat, a body is discovered on a Margate beach, and a suspicious guest arrives at the fashionable Walpole Bay Hotel. When a third body is found, the mystery deepens. Inspector ‘Artful’ Archie Page of the Dover police arrives to investigate. He thinks he has the answers. Dorothy Coates and her friend Effie Dalrymple do not agree. Ladies of a certain age, Dorothy and Effie have a taste for fast cars, a good Chablis with lunch, and definitely cocktails before dinner. An unlikely pair of sleuths, Page sees them as a nuisance. They see the Inspector as a man in need of help.
