The Conqueror Inn
by E.R. Punshon
About this book
“I wouldn’t come any nearer if I were you. It’s not a thing to see unless you have to.” The remote Conqueror Inn, possibly the oldest licensed house in England, has an unexpectedly key role to play in World War Two. Lorry drivers, army camps, black marketeers and even the IRA become entangled in the sinister web which draws this novel’s plot together. Bobby Owen, after finding a case of banknotes, has to identify a corpse mutilated in its grave, ignore the red herrings thrown in his way … and identify a ruthless killer who uses the confusion of war to conceal his tracks.This new edition features an introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans.Page Numbers Source ISBN: 191141335X
