MURDER OFF MIAMI

by Dennis Wheatley and J. (i. Links

filutchinson, 31. d.)

HIS thriller 18, at least, something now in ap- pearance: It is exciting

to find a packet of

Juman hair pasted on one page. And its price is strongly in its

Invour.

It comes to you not in the ordin ary book form, but as a collection of police reports, letters, photo- graphs, and actual clues wrapped in cellophane-a lock of hair, u maich, and ቦ "bloodstained " plece of curtain.

All these are bound up in a thin eardboard folder, each, as the authors say, "in a correct order, ∙as received at police headquarters, thereby forming the complete Dossier of a crime."*

The solution is sealed up at one end, under a slip of paper, which reads.

Do not break this strip until you have decided, on the evidence auth Better, who murdered Bolitho Blane,"

On this evidence I am inclined to Rive more nurks to Mr. Links than to Atr. Wheatley. but it is understood that Mr. Links shares his marks with the craftsmen who, literally, put the book together,

It is ive been a maddening job. It strikes me that the story is inade to seem much better than I is by this novel presentation.

The Dossier, then, begins with a Western Unions Cablegram, reproduced ta facsimile, from the stenin yacht.

Thenceforward you are presented with clues, facalmile felters and Detective-OMeer Kettering's reports from the yacht to Lieutenant Schwab at headquarters.

The short waves-and by this tenn I mean those below about 100 metres-- are capable of world-wide ranges, for they are reflected from a certain layer of the earth's atmosphere back to earth, and therefore can overcome the curvature of the world in a series of hops or skips.

The reason is probably due to the fact that many film stars and other well-known persons in the entertainment worki can be heard from Hollywood.

They are also presented in n sick, quick-fire manner, which is quite dif ferent from European broadenst method.

A net which can tune down to 16 moires is capable of bringing to you Amerlenn programmes in the after noon and evening. Later on you can pick up other American programmes on the 10, 24 and 31 metre wave-bands. I frequently mention that one of the fascinations of short wave istening lies in the fact that you are never quite certain what you may hear. A reader recently wrote to me to say that he had picked up a transmission from t expedition in Biberin, call sign (URAD) which was making observations on the recent eclipse of the sun,

LONDON PRIDE

by Shaw Desmond (Hutchinson, 81, sd.)

Tis not Mr. Desmond's fault that tils publisher's blurb leads the reader to expect something that is beyond Mr. Des- mond's ability to give, at any rate in these nine hundred and forty- odd closely printed pages.

For the gift, its advertised. Is "the saga of the te ardinary on and his wife, face to face with the roma and realism of a great city, and told in the human drama form ncross the back screen of which moving slowly, pass, the chief events from the turn of the century to aur day."

The conception was magnificent, but the result 18, comparatively, poor,

We follow the fortunes of Bert Tancy, a bantam-cock character, from

youth, in a home Infested lay Indgers, up to riches and a title, stail down, after the crash, to a good ol Dickensians oppy ending.

He marries Gert, he wins the Victori Cros, le dazzles London and himsel as the end of "Tancy's Electric Ferti- Itser Company. Limited." and he is -done-down by the oleaginous villain, Fatheringay Featherington, in proper

*

style.

Then he finds true happiness. Mr. Desmond has set out Joyously to create "characters." A tremendous mount of hard work, ingenuity and good-will have gone towards the por- tails of the Tancy family. Pa and Ma towards Stella, the actress, who loved Bert all the time in her way, who conveniently killed Mr. Featherington, and committed suicide; towards all the rest.

But a vital tunch of the brush' is

lacking. No one really comes to life It now remains to compliment Me Desmond mont sincerely on his ludus- try, bis gusto for his tank, and on 'pro viding us with a nice, long rend. full of reminiscent detail.

But on a "saga "—no.

Shop" the keynote of modern sport-description, und "snap," many player-writers found, was an elusive qually when there were so many pages to nil.

Fewer sport books should mean better sport books. You can mark down this.one as being thoroughly in keep- ing with that observation.

From the first All-England Club championship final. which drew 200 spectators on July 10, 1877, down to re- cent Wimbledon stagings for which thousands of pounds' worth of tickets have been soli six months before a ball has been hit, the romaatio history of lawn tennis is traced by a writer who has found the essential secret of serving up fact and reminiscence and anecdote without a trace of dullness.

Unquestionably book not to be inlased by tennis player, or tennis "fan." Inevitable, of course, that thin author should touch on "Shamateur- His is the only common-tense solution:-

Is it not better to be paid openly for playing tennis than to fritter away ones best years as an amateur in name only? Tennis is big enough mud broad enough for both the true amateur and the true professional. No game can live if it hunts one and flouts the oilier.

The future of lawn tennis, lies in 'n frank acknowledgment of this fact." CLIFFORD WEDD.
