Part of Series
Mr. Pinkerton encounters a devilish case of murder. The Old Angel was everything an old English inn should be, with its ancient beams, gleaming copper bed-warmers, pewter tankards and platters heaped high with red roast beef. But then, as Mr. Pinkerton quickly discovered, the Old Angel also harbored some less homey items. Such as a frightened young girl, a series of secret passageways - and a most unpleasant Knight who was suddenly killed in a most unsavory way. The next thing he knew, Mr. Pinkerton was mixed up in a mystery that threatened not only his honor - but his life. —— Title also published as Mr. Pinkerton and the Old Angel.
