The Frog In The Moonflower
The ‘ALA’ is blamed for a series of savage attacks on hunts. Meanwhile, in Geneva, the ‘SIN’ seeks to protect every species. Sandro, one of Lady Jennifer Norrington’s companions, has an aunt who is involved. But it is in East Africa that this story of multiple murder, terror and suspense concludes. The climax is as surprising as it is satisfying.
Mother Love
This is a novel of obsession and revenge. Helena is divorced from her husband. Angela marries Kit, who is Helena’s son, and is then drawn into a web of lies and deceit which is the hallmark of Kit’s existence. The powerful combined rage of abandoned wife and neglected mother is unleashed in this wholly convincing bestselling suspense novel.
The Passion Flower Hotel
The amusing story of the goings-on in a girl’s boarding school where extra-curricular activities offered are a strip-club and bordello for the benefit of the needy at a nearby boy’s school. In a crazy house of ill repute there are adventures galore, all in the cause of allowing the reader to enjoy Roger Longrigg’s supreme wit and storytelling.
Snare in the Dark
Dan Mallett usually keeps one step in front of authority in the west-country village where he lives. Dan goes out one night to poach pheasants, and it is on that night that Major March’s gamekeeper is shot dead with an arrow. Knowing he will almost certainly be blamed, Dan disappears whilst devising a plan to identify the real villain.
Switchboard
'Brimming with talent. Longrigg is a real discovery.' "New Statesman" It was a balmy London evening - mid-summer. Half of London were attending Everest parties. If Sue and Eddie had switched the light off - or even stayed away from the window - none of it would ever have happened . . . Following on from the success of A High-Pitched Buzz, we are once again plunged into the world of advertising in the 1950s. It's a world of expense account lunches, Bentleys and champagne, outrageous promiscuity and heart-breaking loss. First published in 1957, once again Longrigg demonstrates brilliant comic inventiveness, an exceptional ear for dialogue and a talent for disarming romanticism in this moving, highly entertaining novel.
Daughters of Mulberry
Surrounded by photographs, Major Desmond Cook exists quietly and alcoholically in his Baker Street flat. His days are spent at race meetings, fuelled by a dream of winning GBP30,000. As far as he's concerned, it's a modest-enough sum; and one which will allow him to live out his remaining days in comfort.
Bait On The Hook
There was a shot. There was a scream. Dan jumped out of bed and ran to the head of the stairs. Little Anna was staring open-mouthed at a body which lay face upwards in the middle of the hall. A hole was blasted in the body's chest. The face was unmarked. It stared upwards in death. It was Piet Vandervelde, come to abduct Dan’s child.
The Stench of Poppies
In Istanbul, Mustafa sells carpets. But he is also connected with a scientist who has a new strain of opium poppy seeds to sell. Lady Jennifer Norrington and her compatriots are pitted against ruthless drug-runners, with murder, state violence and a seemingly impenetrable ‘respectable’ front pitted against them. And then ... a horrible climax.
Bad Bet
Mathew Carver is a Kentucky bloodstock breeder. The reader is immersed in the world of racing: the bloodstock sales at Newmarket; countryside of Normandy; Bluegrass of Kentucky; and mansions of Virginia. Racing’s aristocracy and its hard men, the touts, fraudsters, stable lads, tipsters and jockeys all provide action with many sub-plots.
