Julian Symons 'Wholly original - although Bingham has been flattered by imitators, it remains supreme in its kind.'
In The Pan Classic Crime Series
With an introduction by John le Carre
The news that John Prosset had been found dead in his isolated country cottage had come as quite a shock to his old friend Michael Sibley, for he had been staying with Prosset only that weekend. But a bigger shock awaits him when two police officers arrive at his door. For Prosset, it seems, did not die accidentally. He was bludgeoned to death. And that is when Michael Sibley makes the first of many fateful mistakes- and begins on a path of deceit that will draw him closer and closer to the hangman's noose . . .
My Name is Michael Sibley turns the traditional crime novel inside out. In this tense and gripping story the police have the wrong man - the innocent narrator, whose web of lies and misjudged actions propel him relentlessly towards his fate.
