Among the crime queens, Ngaio Marsh stands out as an Empress.' THE SUN


Product Description

Ngaio Marsh's bestselling and ingenious third novel remains one of the most popular pieces of crime fiction of all time. Sir John Phillips, the Harley Street surgeon, and his beautiful nurse Jane Harden are almost too nervous to operate. The emergency case on the table before them is the Home Secretary -- and they both have very good, personal reasons to wish him dead.

3.0 out of 5 stars So-So, Dec 10 2001
By Gary F. Taylor "GFT" (Biloxi, MS USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
When a political leader meets unexpected death during emergency surgery, Inspector Allen must determine whether the murder is politically motivated or purely personal. Marsh creates a more deliberately detection-oriented plot than usually found in her work; all the same, THE NURSING HOME MURDER is largely lacking in the wit that generally illuminates Marsh's finest work, and as such the novel seems a bit slow and dry. Long time fans will enjoy it, but newcomers would do well to select a livelier work.
