The Crozier Pharaohs is a 1984 mystery detective novel by the British writer Gladys Mitchell.[1] It is the sixty sixth and last in her long-running series featuring the psychoanalyst and amateur detective Mrs Bradley.[2] The series stretched back to the debut novel Speedy Death in 1929, during which time Bradley had barely aged or changed except for acquiring a damehood. It was published posthumously following Mitchell's death the previous year.
Synopsis[edit]
In the coastal village of Abbots Crozier, two wealthy but eccentric sisters breed Pharaoh Hounds, the oldest domesticated dogs in the world. When their prize dog goes missing they launch a search, which instead turns up a man's dead body.
