Master of detective intrigue, king of unexpected plot twists, amazing connoisseur of human souls, expert of the most cunning police officers? tricks and even... a subtle connoisseur of exotic cuisine. Perhaps, the set of these qualities would be more than enough for a dozen authors of detective stories. But the most amazing thing is that all these qualities characterize one wonderful writer. The very first pages of the famous novels “Paw in a Bottle”, “Miss Shumway Waves a Magic Wand” and “Consider You Dead” will serve as a passport to a world full of incredible adventures and terrible secrets - the world of books by James Hadley Chase, in which no one has ever been boring.
