A riotous Mark Treasure mystery set in Soviet Russia.
Stuart David Williams was a writer best known for his crime
series featuring the banker Mark Treasure and police inspector DI
Parry.
After serving as a Naval officer in the Second World War, Williams
completed a History degree at St John's College, Oxford, before
embarking on a career in advertising. He became a full-time fiction
writer in 1978. Williams wrote twenty-three novels, seventeen of
which were part of the Mark Treasure series of whodunits, which
began with Unholy Writ (1976). His experience in both the Anglican
Church and the advertising world informed and inspired his work
throughout his career.
Two of Williams' books were shortlisted for the Crime Writers'
Association Gold Dagger Award, and in 1988 he was elected to the
Detection Club.
Another well-crafted mystery
