Death at Swaythling Court Cresswell Seymour Poolbeg Press FF Paperback 2024 His once-brilliant plan to passBordering on a parody this is an early Connington novel with an unusual light hearted tone not found in his later books with Sir Clinton Driffield. The story involves the invention of a lethal ray and the attempts of Jimmy Leigh, the inventor, to acquire financing to start a manufacturing business.
