Some thoughts on this year's excellent Bodies From The Library conference. With thanks to John Curran, Mark Green, Susan, Liz and the technical team at the British Library. And of course to my fellow speakers.. Bodies From The Library Conference 2026 witnesstothecrime.wordpress.com/2026/06/29/bod…
It’s Bodies from the Library day at the BL. Looking forward to a day packed with Golden Age Crime panels! It’s sold out this year - so make sure you book early for 2027.

New on my blog.. My review of John Rhode's 'The Murders In Praed Street' (1928) Dr Priestley #4 John Rhode - 'The Murders In Praed Street' (1928) witnesstothecrime.wordpress.com/2026/05/31/joh…
I recently joined Caroline Crampton on the Shedunnit podcast to discuss John Rhode's The Murders In Praed Street. This is the latest in her look at the green Penguin crime paperbacks. We chat about the book and also the lost film version.. shedunnitshow.com/themurdersinpr…
@SeventiesLegend @glitteringstorm @BL_Publishing Yes it is 👍
I know a too obvious choice, but the iconic image justified Poirot Investigates (1924) by #Agathachristie The famous #poirot portrait by W.S. Broadhead #MurderEveryMonday
New on my blog.. A look at R Austin Freeman's first novel-length inverted mystery, expanded from the hard to find short story 'The Dead Hand'. R. Austin Freeman - 'The Shadow Of The Wolf' (1925) witnesstothecrime.wordpress.com/2026/04/19/r-a…
@PhilButcher3 I enjoyed that one, thought it was one of the best of Lorac's early mysteries for Sampson Low
E C R Lorac is an author whose reputation has flourished recently. On my blog you can read reviews of her pre-Collins Crime Club books, which are yet to be reprinted. Her debut.. E.C.R. Lorac - 'The Murder On The Burrows' (1931) witnesstothecrime.wordpress.com/2023/02/15/rev…
New on my blog.. A Miles Burton mystery that stands out - because it is actually easy to track down.. Miles Burton - 'Situation Vacant' (1946) witnesstothecrime.wordpress.com/2026/03/29/mil…

We are delighted to announce the latest reissue to be added to the Galileo Golden Age Mystery list: Villainous Saltpetre by Clifford Witting. We know many of the classic crime readers among you are very keen on his writing, & hope you’ll enjoy this Cornwall-set mystery! 🗡️ 📖
Spotting this bee in the blossom yesterday (wasn’t the March sun glorious?) has inspired us to reshare. Not that actual busy bees make an appearance in the novel . . . so what can it mean? 🐝 🔍 Exciting Witting news coming soon! Fans might want to keep 30th April free 📖
