A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

DEATH OF A GHOST - Margery Allingham
A murder is committed at a gallery preview of a painting by of a long dead painter.
Albert Campion is on hand and leads an investigation into murder in the art world.
Allingham is with Tey and Sayers as the very best of the 'golden age' crime writers. The difference for her is some of her stories are almost Wodehousian and others very serious like this one.
She has a great body of work and it is all very readable.
