Wobble to Death, Peter Lovesey

Short, 'fair' mystery set in an improbable corner of Victorian England. The 'wobble' is a kind of sporting event, a six-day cumulative distance race (on an indoor track). 'Pedestrian' refers specifically to one who walks for sport (everyone walked, after all).

Also read Mad Hatter's Holiday, same author, same detective, set in Brighton, not quite as good (or characters less appealing).
