Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox book Here Comes a Chopper is a 1946 mystery detective novel by the British writer Gladys Mitchell.[1] It is the nineteenth in her long-running series featuring the psychoanalyst and amateur detective Mrs Bradley.[2] The title references a line in the nursery rhyme Oranges and Lemons. The plot revolves around a traditional country house mystery involving a man who goes missing only to turn up as a headless corpse.

In a review in the New Statesman, Ralph Partridge observed "Miss Gladys Mitchell’s style of surrealist detection is too fundamentally established to be criticised. In a misguided way she has a touch of genius."
