About This Item
London : Collins for The Crime Club, (1969). First edition. "A donkey's substituted for the Indian Derby favourite, a distinguished scientist's made to appear a charlatan, a fakir's exposed as a faker – and a mysterious marksman's shooting all the flamingos in the zoo ... Dedicated, diffident, Insp. Ghote – surely the most likeable fictional sleuth – harassed by martinet superior and frustrated by invincibly inefficient sergeant, solves bizarre puzzle" (The Scotsman, 1st February 1969).
Post 8vo (21cm). 224pp. Original red boards, blocked and lettered in gilt; slight spotting of top edge, but a very good, sound and unworn copy in the Brian Roll dust-jacket – the jacket just lightly sunned and very lightly used, but also very good.
Synopsis
Inspector Ghote Plays A Joker is a crime novel by H. R. F. Keating. It is the fifth novel in the Inspector Ghote series.
