The Tale of the Tenpenny Tontine

Anty Boisjoly’s back to fill the gap that overlaps between Agatha Christie and PG Wodehouse, and where Jerome K Jerome meets Dorothy L Sayers.

It’s another mystifying, manor house mystery for Wodehousian bon-vivant and problem-solver Anty Boisjoly, when his clubmate asks him to determine who died first after a duel is fought in a locked room. The untold riches of the Tenpenny Tontine are in the balance, but the stakes only get higher when Anty determines that, duel or not, this was a case of murder.

So many five-star reviews, it’s hard to choose…

“Clever, in both senses of the word.”

“A thoroughly delightful romp in the combined styles of Agatha Christie and PG Wodehouse.”

“Like reading my favorite episode of Downton Abbey.”

“It has witty, eccentric characters, red-herrings and plenty of twists and turns to keep you fully engaged and on the edge of your seat from beginning to end.”

“Witty (screamingly funny actually), neatly plotted mystery.”

“This series is brilliantly written, funny, smart and just plain fun!”

“Excellent mystery. The hilarious comments had me laughing so hard that I was crying.”

“Lord Peter Wimsey meets Bertie Wooster. The more you concentrate,

the better it is.”

“I adored this witty, fast-paced, and cleverly written mystery.”
