From the golden age of the British mystery comes a hard-working Scotland Yard detective whose breeding and bearing give him unique access to the fashionable world in which these stories are set.
New Zealand writer Ngaio Marsh created elegant crime-puzzlers full of quirky characters with hidden agendas, all brought meticulously to life in this series.
The keen intelligence and subtle persistence of Chief Inspector Alleyn are complemented by the insight of his independent lady friend, artist Agatha Troy, and the loyalty of his partner, Detective Inspector Fox.

My husband & I are big fans of British films and TV and especially of British detective series. I'm so glad that we ordered the Inspector Alleyn - The Complete Series from Zavvi.com. This series has excellent production values (period - 30's) and intriguing characters. In the U.S., we don't always have access to everything that the U.K. puts out, but the quality, in my opinion, is superior to American TV - because of the writing, the production values, the skilled actors - who actually come from theater, and the directing. Zavvi.com is a great source of finding - hard-to-find British TV series that are not available in the regular online purchasing channels. Anyone that has a love of Detective series will not be disappointed in the Inspector Alleyn - The Complete Series, DVD set.
A good old fashioned "who dunnit?" with enough style and quiet humour to keep it interesting. I watched this in close order, the series becomes addictive.
