Bøger af Hake Talbot

Hake Talbot wrote only two mystery novels and Ramble House is proud to bring both of them back into print for modern readers. RIM OF THE PIT is his masterpiece of an "impossible crime" that takes place in the far north where snow surrounds a group of desperate people, one of whom is bent on murder. The mapback cover from the 1950's Dell paperback is one of the best crime maps ever drawn and we reproduce it here for you. In addition, this book contains a short story by Talbot called "The Other Side". You will not forget this book!

When Rogan Kincaid arrived at the mysterious island known as The Kraken, he expected to find a lavish party thrown by Jackson B. Frant for a dozen guests. Instead he found only young Nancy Garwood, who had been drugged and left in her bedroom. The rest of the mansion was completely deserted and all Nancy could remember was that somebody died at dinner-and she thought it was the host! It doesn't take long before Rogan starts to wonder if there has been a mass murder-and that there might just be two more bodies to add to the slaughter!
