内容简介

Johnny Wise came to London from Malaya in 1940, met a girl and, when she was unfaithful to him, committed suicide. Retribution came in 1947, catching up with the principals in Johnny Wise’s death in the course of an Exhibition’s pageant.

Which of the eleven visored knights killed the maiden in the tower—and how? Inspector Cockrill is baffled. And his task is not made any easier because all the suspects were anonymous in their suits of armour at the time of the murder…

作者简介

克里斯蒂安娜?布兰德（1907－1988）

推理小说黄金时期的最后一位大师，推理小说史上的传奇女子。1941年，当推理小说全盘出现桎梏之际，她竟陆续推出了两部小说，而数年之后，更以一部《绿色危机》敲开无数读者心扉。1946年，她顺利加入了门槛颇高的英国侦探作家俱乐部，自此益发佳作不断，备受瞩目。1972至1973年间，布兰德以其杰出的成就，荣任英国犯罪作家协会主席。
