Dear Laura

See the full ranking

Inspector John Joseph Lintott of Scotland Yard is quiet of dress and manner, and his respectability could not be doubted, but he was no gentleman. He had risen from the ranks slowly, and knew the dark side of London. One might kill Lintott, but one would never deter him. Dear Laura was nominated in 1973 for the Edgar Allan Poe Mystery Award. When Theodore Crozier is found dead the neighbourhood hopes the cause may be suicide, if only to spare further pain for both his dutiful wife Laura and beloved brother Titus. However there is more to the matter - a whisper of murder. Lintott is assigned to investigate, and gradually drags all manner of hidden secrets into light.
