Viac o knihe

Set in the early 20th century, this crime and mystery novel introduces Dr. Thorndyke, a forensic investigator navigating an inverted detective story format. Unlike traditional mysteries, the criminal's identity is revealed upfront, focusing instead on the detective's process of unraveling the case. Originally published in 1911, it showcases Richard Austin Freeman's evolution from emulating Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to establishing his own distinctive narrative style. The new edition includes a fresh introduction, enriching the reader's experience of this classic work.
