- Double-weighted statement
- This 96,000-word monograph (pp. viii + 208) is based on eight years of research and includes consideration of hitherto unexamined archival material. Its four chapters and chapter-length introduction and conclusion contribute to debates about detective fiction but also have a wider scope, encompassing other kinds of fictional and nonfictional writing about crime, including work by previously under-researched authors. It therefore sheds new light on the wider literary culture of interwar Britain.
