Gregson produced a vast body of work, primarily focusing on detective fiction, and is particularly recognized for his extensive series featuring both Inspector Lambert and Inspector Peach. His books are characterized by their atmospheric settings, often in rural England, and a commitment to satisfying puzzle-box mysteries.
