| Peter Diamond returns in the fourth installment of this detective series. A rare stamp is stolen from a museum, only to appear between the pages of a mystery book under consideration by a group of wing-chair sleuths known as the Bloodhounds. The intrigue deepens when one of the mystery buffs winds up dead. |
Annotation:

Kirkus Reviews
"Lovesey, always something of a Golden Age writer out of his time, provides some ingenious variations on the old 'locked room' mystery formula while gleefully lecturing the reader on genre lore." 10/01/1996 New York Times Book Review
"I am mad for these pyrotechnic teasers, and this one had my head spinning." - Marilyn Stasio 12/22/1996 Los Angeles Times Book Review
"And it's his witty way of solving the twin crimes while simultaneously getting the better of a particularly obnoxious fellow policeman that gives this mystery a special distinction that 'bloodhounds' of both classic and modern mystery should thoroughly enjoy." 01/15/1996
