Bestselling author Josephine Tey's classic final mystery featuring her best-loved character, Inspector Alan Grant, filled with "all the Tey magic and delight" and now featuring a new introduction by Robert Barnard. On sick leave from Scotland Yard, Inspector Alan Grant is planning a quiet holiday with an old school chum to recover from overwork and mental fatigue. Traveling on the night train to Scotland, however, Grant stumbles upon a dead man and a cryptic poem about "the stones that walk" and "the singing sand," which send him off on a fascinating search into the verse's meaning and the identity of the deceased. Grant needs just this sort of casual inquiry to quiet his jangling nerves, despite his doctor's orders. But what begins as a leisurely pastime eventually turns into a full-blown investigation that leads Grant to discover not only the key to the poem but the truth about a most diabolical murder.Binding Type: Paperback

It’s a real watch!
This watch punches way above its price point. Sapphire, silicone, 80 hour movement (although it needs to be hand wound once in a while if you don’t wear it every day).
Entry level Swiss luxury!
Of course, it’s not a Rolex or an Omega, but it’s definitely a real watch.

Timeless Elegance with a Modern Twist
Color: Anthracite
A true masterpiece. The anthracite dial is sleek and sophisticated, while the 42mm case size strikes the perfect balance between bold and refined. The automatic movement is smooth, and I love the understated design—classy enough for formal events but versatile enough for everyday wear. It’s a watch that truly elevates any outfit.
Pros: Stunning design, high-quality craftsmanship, and automatic movement for precision.
Cons: The strap is a bit stiff at first, but it softens with wear.
If you're looking for a watch that combines traditional Swiss quality with modern aesthetics, the Mido Commander Icône is a timeless choice!

Quality and affordable Swiss chronometer.
Color: Silver
This is a basic but certified accurate watch which is what I wanted. It is a very good looking watch and shows quality at every level.
I have had it for seven days now and it has gained between 7 or 8 seconds which exceeds the certification standard. If it maintains this level of accuracy it will far exceed my expectations.
