A death unsettles the community of Crookshaven and draws Ezra Sewell into a case of suspicion, conflicting accounts and concealed interests. What begins amid familiar local relationships becomes an investigation in which apparently ordinary conversations and practical details acquire new significance.
Alexander Morrison mixes detection with the personalities and rivalries of a small town. Robbery, an escape, disputed wills and the intervention of Mrs. Bascom complicate Sewell’s search for the truth. This complete 1927 novel includes all eighteen chapters, its original plan and the final resolution.
