Peril at Cranbury Hall is a 1930 detective novel by John Rhode, the pen name of the British writer Cecil Street.[1] It marked the eighth appearance of the armchair detective Lancelot Priestley, who featured in a long-running series of novels during the Golden Age of Detective Fiction.[2] The use of the cipher inspired a similar one used in Dorothy L. Sayers's Have His Carcase[3]
