Mauretania in 1921, The False Inspector Dew is a deliciously crafted murder mystery from award-winning crime writer Peter Lovesey. The novel chronicles the audacious scheme of a dentist who, desperate to escape his marriage, assumes the identity of the famous real-life detective Walter Dew — the man who once caught the notorious Dr. Crippen — only to find himself entangled in a shipboard murder he did not commit. Lovesey masterfully weaves historical detail with mounting suspense, conjuring the opulence and intrigue of ocean liner travel between the wars. Wickedly clever and compulsively readable, the novel won the Gold Dagger Award from the Crime Writers' Association, cementing its status as a landmark of British crime fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48893798809819,"sku":"2026100006276-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/3f0b3e9a-7d9e-4d6b-a234-5f32996c3f95.png?v=1782039901","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006276-secondhand-the-false-inspector-dew","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
