About this ebook
A timeless whodunit about the unusual murder of one of London's elite and the twisting and treacherous investigation to find the true killer. Despite wealthy old Mr. Henry Courtenay's steadily declining health, his death comes as a shock to those around him. It was murder, Courtenay's prim manservant exclaims, and he implores Dr. Ralph Boyd to find the culprit. The list of suspects appears to be short: Only someone who lives in Courtenay's suburban London home could have gone into his room unnoticed. Could the murderer be one of the servants? Or perhaps Courtenay's young wife—or her beautiful sister, with whom Boyd has fallen in love? Boyd is beginning to realize that in the Courtenay home, secrets abound at every turn and, as with all great mysteries, nothing is as simple as it seems. (Goodreads) This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.

About the author
William Tufnell Le Queux (2 July 1864 – 13 October 1927) was an Anglo-French journalist and writer. He was also a diplomat (honorary consul for San Marino), a traveller (in Europe, the Balkans and North Africa), a flying buff who officiated at the first British air meeting at Doncaster in 1909, and a wireless pioneer who broadcast music from his own station long before radio was generally available; his claims regarding his own abilities and exploits, however, were usually exaggerated. His best-known works are the anti-French and anti-Russian invasion fantasy The Great War in England in 1897 (1894) and the anti-German invasion fantasy The Invasion of 1910 (1906), the latter becoming a bestseller.
