Gentleman sleuth Albert Campion tries to solve the murder of a prominent publisher in this “vivid and witty” British mystery (The New York Times). Scandal hits the prestigious publishing house of Barnabas when one of the directors is found dead in a locked cellar. All eyes are on the other partners at the firm—cousins of the dead man with much to gain from his demise—and all rumors hint at a connection to the disappearance of another director decades earlier. Desperate to salvage their reputation, the cousins turn to Albert Campion—but will his investigations clear the Barnabas family name, or besmirch it forever? “My very favourite of the four Queens of Crime is Allingham.” —J. K. Rowling “Ms. Allingham has a strong, controlled sense of humour and is never dull.” —Times Literary Supplement

Flowers for the Judge was published in 1936, and it was the seventh of Margery Allingham's novels to feature Albert Campion. In past podcasts, I have reviewed a couple of her earlier novels, noting that they were really more action stories than detective novels. Flowers for the Judge is different. Allingham's writing is more mature - and Mr. Campion seems more mature, abandoning a great deal of the regrettable fatuity that makes up his character in the early novels. Campion is called into this case quite early - after the disappearance but before the body is discovered. When it is found, suspicion and a great deal of circumstantial evidence points at the victim's cousin, a young man who is clearly in love with the victim's widow. The cousin, Mike Wedgwood, is arrested, and the police are quite satisfied.
