A beautiful, young and naive young woman, a handsome stranger, a romantic runaway to start a new life together in France, happy ever after?
Leaving behind a worried mother and a detective bought in to find the missing girl, a worried detective, worried because just a few months before, another young girl, her heart full of hope and dreams had been found dead in the French mountains, she'd been buried alive...
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; Gordon Ashe, Michael Halliday, Jeremy York, Norman Deane, Anthony Morton and JJ Maric.
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.
Genre: Mystery
