Dearh on a Quiet day - Michael Innes

I recently discovered three authors of classic English crime novels of which I am a huge fan.
It is Michael Innes, George Bellairs and Edmund Crispin. I have already read quite a number with great pleasure and it was a real treat to be given this novel to review. It got it from Crime Classics to download via NetGalley.
This novel  is number 16 in The Sir Appleby series .
David Henchman is a student attending a reading party supervised by old Pettifor. He goes for a days outing and sees a smoke on top of Knack Tor. He climbs to the top and finds a dead body very shortly after he has heard a shot. This results in a thrilling run for his life and at some point Appleby appears in the story. Telling more about the plot would be a spoiler.
It is a very well told and exciting story with plenty of action, humor and suspense. I really enjoyed it.
