Description

In The Glimpses of the Moon, death and decapitation seem to go hand in hand. When the first victim's head is sent floating down the river in the Devon village of Aller, the rural calm is shattered. Soon the corpses are multiplying, and the entire community is involved in the hunt for the murderer. Whilst many chase false trails, it is left to Gervase Fen, Oxford don and amateur criminologist, to uncover the sordid truth. Equal parts compelling, witty and ingenuous, this novel is a classic example of great British detective fiction.

Edmund Crispin has been named ‘one of the undiscovered treasures of British crime fiction’ by A. L. Kennedy, and chosen by The Times as one of their ‘50 greatest crime writers.'
