When Helen Davenport is found strangled in her London flat, the news shocks even those who thought they knew her well. Beautiful, charming, and surrounded by gossip, Helen had lived a life that drew both admiration and quiet resentment.
As questions begin to surface, Scott Egerton, a Member of Parliament with a sharp eye for trouble, starts looking more closely at the people around her. What first appears to be a simple crime soon reveals a tangled history and a circle of suspects with reasons to keep the past hidden.
The Murder of Mrs Davenport is a tense Golden Age mystery by Anthony Gilbert, blending sharp social observation with a puzzle that grows darker the deeper it goes.
