Death of Anton

Melville, Alan, 1910-19832019
Large Print
Seven Bengal tigers are the star attraction of Carey's Circus. Their trainer is the fearless Anton, whose work demands absolute fitness and the steadiest of nerves. When Anton is found lying dead in the tigers' cage, it seems that he has lost control and been mauled by the tigers - but Detective-Inspector Minto of Scotland Yard is not convinced. Minto's investigations lead him deep into the circus world of tents and caravans, clowns and acrobats, human and animal performers. No one is above suspicion. This amusing and light-hearted novel from the golden age of British crime writing will help to restore Melville's reputation as an author of entertaining detective fiction.
