Now Scotland Yard's Inspector Ernest Lamb and Detective Frank Abbott must unearth the truth before an implacable enemy claims more than one life in this wartime mystery.</p> <p><em>Pursuit of a Parcel</em> was originally published in 1932. This new edition features an introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans.</p> <p>"When I pick up a book by Patricia Wentworth I think, now to enjoy myself--and I always do."
