Add this copy of Death in Ecstasy to cart. $15.00, very good condition, Sold by The Book House - Saint Louis rated 5.0 out of 5 stars, ships from St. Louis, MO, UNITED STATES, published 1986 by Jove Books.
This novel is about midway in the series featuring Roderick Allyne, or Handsome Allyne, as Nigel Bathgate has labeled him. Nigel stumbles into a cult ceremony and when murder arises, calls in Allyne to solve the mystery. Ther are plenty of red herrings, plenty of clues, and a decent plot to it all. Some of it is a give-away, some obscure, but it's all there, no cheating. Not like Dame Agatha or some other period mystery writers. I am collecting the series, and I am enjoying the reading. 4 stars, for the prose, plot and characters.

All of Ngaio Marsh's books are different. She is just an amazing author.
