    About this ebook

    For cinema projectionist Sid Elbridge, it seems that things can't get much worse. First, circumstantial evidence has made him the prime suspect in the police investigation of a robbery at the cinema where he works. Secondly, his fiancée Vera has been horribly killed in the same theatre, victim of a falling light fixture. Then he discovers strange, intricate patterns traced in the dust on the wooden frame of a still-case. There's something very wrong about this "accident," he now realizes, and begins investigating what actually happened.

    Slowly he realizes that a ruthless murderer is lurking in the shadows, and only Sid can uncover the PATTERN OF MURDER!

    Another great mystery story by a British master of intricate plot twists.

      To say that the inspiration for my third whodunit, Murder on Lake Garda, came unexpectedly wouldn’t quite be doing it justice. When I first happened on the seed of an idea, I was actually well into working on a completely different novel, involving a
