作者简介
This is the republished version of Leonard Gribble's 1939 football-mystery classic.
Inspector Anthony Slade of Scotland Yard arrives at Arsenal Stadium after a match between current league champions Arsenal and The Trojans, a top amateur side. One of the Trojan players collapses during the match and subsequently dies. Foul play is suspected and Slade together with his assistant Sergeant Clinton begin their investigation.
The book, which was made into a film in its year of publication, gives the reader an insight into the Arsenal FC of the 1930s, training methods, etc and contains alot of interesting trivia which is not so apparent from watching the film. It's an interesting read from an historic perspective, has a reasonable and realistic plot as a murder-mystery and is a must-read for all Arsenal supporters.
