    “Book Descriptions: Discover classic whodunits from a golden age of crime writing featuring opera-loving, puzzle-solving Cambridge academic Dr Davie.

    In this 4-book box set:

    Book 1: Death’s Bright Dart
    Brilliant minds gather at St Nicholas’s College, Cambridge, for a conference. But the last thing they’re expecting is murder. Dr Brauer is three sentences into his lecture when he suddenly collapses. His death is pronounced as being from a heart attack, but Dr Davie isn’t so sure . . . With plenty of suspects, our amateur sleuth Dr Davie will need all his wits about him to solve this mystery.

    Book 2: My Foe Outstretch’d Beneath the Tree
    Morris Brent has it all: good looks, a beautiful mistress, and a membership at the exclusive Chesterfield Club in London. Then one morning, fellow club-member and amateur sleuth Dr Davie stumbles across Brent lying face down beneath a tree in the well-kept, members-only garden. Beaten and suffocated. Davie’s investigation leads him from the club to a women’s college and finally to the opening night at the opera where Davie is about to witness the performance of a lifetime . . .

    Book 3: Only a Matter of Time
    Dark dealings are afoot at Bexminster Electronics. Company secretary Robert Coppleston discovers secrets are being leaked to their Japanese rivals. But by whom? Then a body is discovered in a hedge in Combe Court. The victim has a large bruise on the side of his neck, the contents of his pockets scattered around him. A second body is found with bruising to the neck. The town thinks it has a killer in its midst. It’s time for Dr Davie to begin his investigations, even if it means putting his own life on the line.

    Book 4: No Case for the Police
    Dr Davie arrives in his hometown of Tidwell St Peter’s for the funeral of his childhood friend Robert Cassillis. As Robert’s literary executor, Davie wastes no time going through Robert’s voluminous papers after the funeral, and makes a shocking discovery. One of Robert’s journals contains notes on the recent death of Adam Merrick, who drowned in a quarry. The police believe his death was a tragic accident, but Robert thought otherwise . . . Robert’s widow implores Davie to destroy the journal. But Davie wants to find out what really happened.”
