Book Review: Frances and Richard Lockridge’s Murder Out of Turn
Mr. and Mrs. North have invited their closest friends—an ex-aviator, a mysterious doctor, and New York Police Department’s own Lt. William Weigand—to join them on this glittering retreat, but the joviality ends when Weigand finds Helen Wilson lying across the path, a knife buried in her neck. A member of the group surely killed her, and unless the Norths act quickly, the murderer will strike again.
Book Review: Frances and Richard Lockridge’s The Norths Meet Murder
THE NORTHS MEET MURDER in the top-floor studio of the old house in which they live.

With the aid of Mrs. North’s “hunches” Weigand carries through to a brilliant, entertaining and fascinating conclusion.
