Blackkerchief Dick

Margery Allingham

Original title: Black'erchief Dick

first published 1948 Independently Published, 2020

A historical novel about smugglers set on Mersea Island in the 17th century, where the Spaniard Delfazio discoveres how true love and friendship can be found in the darkest of places. With romance, heartbreak and adventure on an even keel, Blackkerchief Dick ticks along to the beat of smuggler's life; murder, rum, and the old call of the sea.
