I enjoyed these short stories featuring Sir John Appleby, assistant commissioner of New Scotland Yard. Author Michael Innes, as always, fills these short stories with sly humor, subtle wit, some over the top characters and lots of references to art and literature. The short story format isn’t really conducive to much character development, (probably the reason for some of those exaggerated characters), but they do showcase Appleby’s formidable intelligence and crime solving ability.
I think that these short stories will be most enjoyable to those who have already gotten to know Appleby in a novel or two.
