Résumé

Mycroft has turned detective... A masterclass of classic crime - 'A triumph of ingenuity and horrific simplicity' Boris Karloff'A very clever thriller' Raymond ChandlerIn an English country village, a recluse and a beekeeper team up to catch a cunning villain. Far from the noise of Victorian London, Sydney Silchester's two passions are privacy and honey. But when his honey supplier is found stung to death by her hive, the search for a new beekeeper takes Sydney to Mr.
Mycroft, a brilliant man who has retired to Sussex to take up precisely this occupation, and who shares many traits with the great detective, Sherlock Holmes. Mycroft, himself no stranger to crime-solving, immediately senses the bloody hand of murder. But what villain would have the mad intelligence to train an army of killer bees? And will Mycroft risk his own life to find the killer?

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de H F Heard

Henry Fitzgerald Heard (1889-1971) was born in London, studied at Cambridge University, then turned to writing essays and books signing them Gerald Heard, the name under which all his non-fiction appeared. He moved to the United States in 1937, accompanied by his friend Aldous Huxley, and soon afterwards founded a college to teach meditation and other spiritual practices. Mr. Mycroft appeared in two additional novels by Heard: Reply Paid (1942) and The Notched Hairpin (1949).
Among Heard's other science fiction and mystery novels, perhaps his best-known work is the short story "The President of the U. S. A., Detective, " which won the first prize in Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine's contest in 1947.
