Ngaio Marsh
A touring theatre company in New Zealand forms the basis of one of Marsh’s most ambitious and innovative novels.
New Zealand theatrical manager Alfred Meyer wanted to celebrate his wife’s birthday in style. The piece de résistance would be the jeroboam of champagne which would descend gently into a nest of fern and coloured lights on the table, set up onstage after the performance.
But something went horribly wrong. Chief Detective Inspector Alleyn witnessed it himself. Was Meyer’s death the product of Maori superstitions? Or something much more down to earth?

If you could sum up Vintage Murder in three words, what would they be?
Great storyWhat was one of the most memorable moments of Vintage Murder?
The interview between the main character and the doctorWhat does James Saxon bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I was a little disappointed with his voice. I picture a stronger more masculine voice.The stories are terrific so I will purchase again and again.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Of course when he solves the case is the best part, although the picnic with the leading lady was especially descriptive.Any additional comments?
I will listen to all of these books.classic
