1 | Thorndyke Novels 9-12 (Unabridged) | R. Austin Freeman |
A third collection of full-length adventures for R. Austen Freeman's great forensic detective, Dr John Thorndyke. First, in The D'Arblay Mystery, the body of Julius D'Arblay is found beneath the surface of a shallow woodland pond, putting Thorndyke on the trail of a very calculated murder. Then, in A Certain Dr Thorndyke, the detective investigates a theft that provoked a resolute young Englishman to flee the country, and soon discovers unexpected mysteries; while As a Thief in the Night requires him to unravel a case of murder by poison, which there appears to be not a particle of positive evidence against any individual in the victim's household. Finally, in Mr Pottermack's Oversight, a set of footprints pique Thorndyke's interest in the disappearance of a bank employee, despite the careful planning of the ingenious and meticulous Mr Pottermack. |
