THE COMPLETE GERVASE FEN VOLUME 3 - Frequent Hearses, The Long Divorce, The Glimpses of the Moon

Volume 3 of Edmund Crispin's Gervase Fen novels, collected together for the first time. FREQUENT HEARSESWhen young actress Gloria Scott throws herself from Waterloo Bridge, the news sends shockwaves through her film studio. Luckily Gervase Fen is in London to investigate. But when someone acts fast to cover up any evidence - removing all signs of Ms Scott's identity from her apartment and poisoning a suspicious cameraman - the truth is hard to find. THE LONG DIVORCELong inhabited by a collection of profoundly offbeat locals, there has been a recent influx of the newly rich and well to do arriving in the village of Cotten Abbas .
and not everyone is happy about it. New arrivals are receiving anonymous letters that know a little too much about dark secrets and dirty laundry. Gervase Fen is summoned to the scene, but soon finds more than he bargained for. A suicide on Friday, a murder by Sunday, and some villagers that seem hell bent on keeping this mystery unsolved. GLIMPSES OF THE MOONWhen a decapitated head is seen floating down the river in the Devon village of Aller, the rural calm is shattered.
Soon the corpses are multiplying, and the entire community is involved in the hunt for the murderer. Whilst many chase false trails, it is left to Gervase Fen, Oxford don and amateur criminologist, to uncover the sordid truth.
