On her way to Church early one November morning, Mrs. Jump sees a
dead body in the gutter in July Street. Fearing to investigate, she
hurries on, but her conscience finally convinces her that she ought
to return and report her discovery. Much to her relief, however,
the body has vanished. Mrs. Jump happens to be Mrs. Littlejohn's
daily help and casually mentions her adventure. Following one of
his famous hunches, Superintendent Littlejohn, of Scotland Yard,
decides to check her story and before very long, a full-blown
investigation is in full swing. July Street is a queer
neighbourhood and some queer people live there. A doctor in
disgrace and his simpleton of a sister; a monstrous fat man who
thinks he owns the street and everyone in it; a scared little
French polisher, whose children have whooping-cough. Before the
case is finally wound up, Littlejohn finds himself in France again,
visiting the lovely valley of the River Yonne and Paris, where he
investigates a gang of burglars who run a jazz-band. First
published in 1962, Death Before Breakfast is a classic crime, full
of intrigue, mysterious motives, and ingenious speculation.
