At the bottom of the listing for The Tiger in the Smoke at Amazon US, there was a little quote that offered a free Allingham short story:

Quote:
Get a free previously unpublished short story by Margery Allingham, and exclusive Margery Allingham material

I wasn't totally sure this was legit, but went ahead and crossed my fingers, followed the link, and provided my email to the "Margery Allingham Mailing List". A little while later (after verification), I got a response from Camilla Shestopal at Peters Fraser & Dunlop, which is a legitimate literary agency in the UK that appears to administer the Margery Allingham estate. The short story is Caeser's Wife's Elephant, and although I haven't had a chance to read it yet, it is an Albert Campion story. The email indicates that this story, "until now, has been seen only by the Margery Allingham society".

The link is in the quote above...

It is a US Kindle Countdown deal at $0.99 for about 1 more day.
