The Complete Gower Street Detective

Collected in a single volume for the first time, the complete Gower Street Detective series.
Sidney Grice, London's most famous personal detective, is expecting a visitor. He drains his fifth pot of morning tea, and glances outside, where a young, plain woman picks her way between the piles of horse-dung towards his front door. Sidney Grice shudders. For heaven's sake - she is wearing brown shoes.
His caller is March Middleton, Grice's recently orphaned goddaughter. With her sharp tongue and even sharper mind, March is certain she could help her guardian solve his cases - if only he did not think women too feeble for detective work. But even Grice must admit some puzzles are too great for even him to solve alone...
Set between the refined buildings of Victorian Bloomsbury and the stinking streets of London's East End, The Gower Street Detective is for those who like their crime original, atmospheric, and very, very funny.
THE GOWER DETECTIVE SERIES OMNIBUS INCLUDES:
The Mangle Street Murders.
The Curse of the House of Foskett.
