Sequel to Murder: The Cases of Arthur Crook and Other Mysteries is a compilation of mystery stories written by British crime fiction author, Anthony Gilbert. Published in 1983, it features various cases solved by the fictional character Arthur Crook, a lawyer and amateur detective.

Anthony Gilbert, the pseudonym of Lucy Beatrice Malleson (1899-1973), is remembered for the creation of Arthur Crook, who unlike aristocratic sleuths such as Lord Peter Wimsey and Albert Campion is earthy and occasionally (as editor John Cooper says) outrageously cheeky, with a sensitivity for the down-and-outers who are caught up in crime. Beginning in 1936, Gilbert wrote more than 50 novels featuring Arthur Crook, a London lawyer who spends as much time in pubs as in his office, and who goes to outlandish, and not always legal, lengths to clear his clients. Sequel to Murder includes all the Arthur Crook short cases, as well as a selection of Gilbert's other mystery stories. This is the thirty-ninth volume in Crippen & Landru's Lost Classics series -- previously uncollected detective and mystery stories by great writers of the past.

The book contains twelve short stories, each presenting a unique mystery that Crook must solve. These cases often involve complex puzzles, unexpected twists, and intriguing characters. As Crook uncovers the truth behind each crime, he unravels the secrets and motives of the culprits. The stories are known for their suspenseful narrative and the clever deductions made by the lead character.
