Originally published in 1948, it's the first in a delightful series of comedic mysteries featuring this most engaging detecting duo. For years people have been telling Jane Hamish that her work as a clerk in a law firm must be so interesting that she should write a book about it. So she decides to write a thriller, with help, of course, from her boyfriend Dagobert Brown, who is fortunately unemployed and so has ample time to investigate when one ofthe firm's clients, old Mrs. Robjohn, dies from gas inhalation in her lonely room. Meanwhile, Jane keeps tabs on her coworkers and eventually becomes convinced that the old lady, who was certain she was being stalked, was actually murdered. Among the clues Jane and Dagobert pore over are a gold cigarette lighter that keeps turning up in odd places and a William the Fourth shilling that was retrieved from Mrs. Robjohn' s gas meter. And when he's not posing as a gas company employee or a door-to-door salesman, Dagobert continues to romance Jane after hours. . 1st Prtg. Pictorial Wrappers. As New. Book.

Dagobert Brown’s always got a new interest, Gregorian chant, wildflowers, sixteenth-century French poetry. His latest hobby, however, is murder—or at least, the murder mystery he wants Jane Hamish to write. Jane is the practical one, a no-nonsense girl, who has one weakness: Dagobert, who exasperates her and intrigues her in equal parts. “Dagobert is my hero,” she says, “but he persistently refuses to act like one.” So, together they start looking at people in Harriet’s office for plot ideas. Mrs. Robjohn seems like the perfect victim for Jane’s book: a lonely, delusional spinster who haunts the law offices where Jane works, telling everyone who’ll listen that sinister men are following her. When Mrs. Robjohn’s found dead of gas poisoning in her flat, Dagobert won’t believe it’s an accident. Dragging Jane with him through 1940s London, from pub to nightclub to deserted warehouse district, Dagobert throws himself enthusiastically—if eccentrically—into sleuthdom, determined to track down a real-life killer. In their easy camaraderie and witty banter, Dagobert and Jane bring to mind Dashiell Hammett’s Nick and Nora, but Jane is every inch Dagobert’s intellectual equal and partner in detection. A classic Golden Age mystery, She Shall Have Murder, the first in Delano Ames’s Dagobert and Jane Brown series, stands up to the best in its genre today. But its absorbing portrayal of life in London between the wars adds another dimension, highlighted in this annotated Manor Minor Press edition. Paperback, Label: Harpercollins, Harpercollins, Produktgruppe: Book, Publiziert: 1983-02, Studio: Harpercollins, Verkaufsrang: 5479187.
