  Death of a Tin God by George Bellairs This is number 36 in the  Chief Inspector Littlejohn series. It is a lovely reunion with the Isle of Man and the South of France, and also with  archdeacon Kinrade and the french inspector Dorange.  After being in Dublin on a missing person case, Littlejohn is visiting his old friend Caesar Kinrade on the Isle of Man. This short holiday is interrupted when the famous actor Hal  Vale, is electrocuted in his hotelroom. The local Inspector Knell asks Littlejohn for help. There are  lots of theater people staying in the hotel, and also his co star Monique Dol., who was to be his fourth wife. She has however fled the hotel and the search for her takes Littlejohn to the French Riviera and his old friend and colleague Inspector Dorange.  In France very important people are involved and lives are at risk, when they clear up the crime. It is a very entertaining and amusing crime novel with dangerous confrontations. I enjoyed reading it.
