    Fisher College at Cambridge lies between St John's and Trinity Colleges, a fact which may escape those who visit Cambridge trusting only to the official guide books and seeing no more than a gap of twenty feet between those two great houses of learning. Here one morning the bedmakers and gyps, clamouring for admission on the last day of term awere admitted to find, lying across their path, the body of one of the College porters. The murder of the porter begins a mystery which is deepend when it is found that the unpopular Dean of the college is missing. The search for the murderer is conducted in part by the police and partly by the Vice-President of Fisher College Sir Richard Cherrington, an eminent but slightly eccentric archaeologist with a penchant for amateur detection. The Cambridge Murders is a story of murder at high table, of death and detection amid good living and scholarship.

    Welcome Death

    Cambridge Don, Sir Richard Cherrington is invited by his aunt to her small sleepy village in the Vale of Glamorgan, in Wales, to solve a poison-pen mystery. Little did he expect his ingenuity as a detective to be used to solve a murder! No death could have been more widely welcome than Evan Morgan's. For Morgan had spent the war making money and enemies with about equal facility. On the night of the "Welcome Home" celebrations for returned soldiers, a whole posse of murderers beat a path to the door of the Manor House. Sir Richard solved this intricate puzzle of motives and alibis.
