I too have some quibbles (though mine, I think, were triggered more by that body in the library - but then, John Dickson Carr used a similar solution in one of his best mysteries and I didn't like it much there either).

I guess I would place <i>Comes a Stranger</i> second, which are closely followed by <i>Crossword Mystery</i> and <i>Death Comes to Cambers</i>. <br /><br />Again, I've hardly read enough Punshon to make such a list.
