Silk Stocking Murders

by Anthony Berkeley

Gentleman sleuth and novelist Roger Sheringham would not have ordinarily been curious about the suicide of chorus girl Miss Unity Ransome. However when he receives a cry for help from a country parson attempting to trace his missing daughter, Sheringham finds himself involved. And when three other young women are found hanged dead, by silk stockings, Sheringham realizes that what he is investigating is actually murder.
