The murder of Mr Alfred Snowe, a genial and inoffensive antiquarian, comes as a decided shock to his native town of Wrenchester. By a lucky coincidence, Ronald Camberwell, well-known partner in the Chaney and Camberwell Detective Agency, has been playing cricket in the neighbourhood and agrees to assist the bewildered police.
Soon Chaney and Camberwell are off on a complicated trail and, after several more people have lost their lives in the strange chain of events following the old antiquarian’s death, they find themselves faced with losing both the murderer and the fortune he killed for. Only with skill and tenacity will the dogged duo confound the heinous plans of the evil villain!
Joseph Smith Fletcher (1863-1935) was a journalist and author of more than 220 books on a wide variety of subjects, including over 100 detective stories, including bibliomystery, The Yorkshire Moorland Mystery.
