Aprašymas

The Slip-Carriage Mystery by Lynn Brock is a gripping detective novel set in early 20th-century England. It is the successor to The Deductions of Colonel Gore, Colonel Gore's Second Case, and The Kink.

Into the hands of the capable Colonel Gore is put the confusing evidence collected at the inquest of an appalling crime-contradictory, puzzling documents that cast multiple shadows of suspicion on five people ranging from the chauffeur to the very wife of the murdered man.

How Colonel Gore proceeds to handle the case, with his analytical powers keyed to the inquiring, deducing, observing, and reasoning of the clues available-quick in action, sound in judgement-makes a story that captures one's interest and is never relaxed until the final curtain. Horror and thrills-likable characters-English scenery at Shenstone Castle-the haunting sense of crime and tragedy-all these are welded together in a tale that is a real mystifying mystery, a "shocker" charged with electric sparks.

With its atmospheric setting and clever plot, The Slip-Carriage Mystery keeps readers on the edge of their seats until the final revelation.
