Look at Murder

(1952)
A novel by

 
 
Through the high powered binoculars Tony Hardy saw it all, the car on the lonely road, the 3 men appearing out of the woods surrounding it, the terrified young woman at the wheel, desperate to escape, the way the men brutally attacked her, knocking her unconscious.
Why was this woman so savagely attacked? Who are these brutal assailants? Who was Millson the brutish man with the strange mummy like face and what could Hardy possibly do to help or was his own life now in danger for witnessing too much?

Fiction maestro John Creasey ( 1908 - 1973 ) was and remains an enigma. He was one of the biggest selling and (by most measures) the most prolific producer of fiction, of the 20th century, writing over 620 novels in both his own name and through over 25 different pseudonyms including; Norman Deane, Michael Halliday, Jeremy York, Gordon Ashe, JJ Maric and Anthony Morton.

Creasey's popularity is as staggering as his output with book sales approaching 100 million copies across 29 languages in over 100 countries. At the peak of his commercial success Creasey was selling 4 million books a year in the UK and USA alone. Protagonists such as Gideon of Scotland Yard, The Baron and The Toff are lynchpins of British post war crime fiction, and several Creasey works were adapted for TV and film.
