The police inspector brightened. 'I must say that any suggestion of a motive would be a help. The deceased didn't appear to have any natural enemies.' 'We've all got natural enemies, Inspector. I think what poor Walkinshaw had were some unnatural ones.' Last Writes is a mischievously clever compendium of twenty-two short stories from the pen of classic crime author Catherine Aird. Not only do her much-loved police duo Detective Inspector Christopher Sloan and Detective Constable William Crosby feature, but also a host of new characters including the mysterious Malcolm Venables of the Secret Service. Full of delicious twists and turns, Last Writes is be a collection to curl up with and savour.
