Murder mystery #8 by the prolific American author Carolyn Wells, featuring her famous detective, Fleming Stone (though that detective isn’t brought into the case until it’s almost too late). The novel features a heroine resisting pressure to marry a man she doesn’t love, detectives and police who keep chasing clues in the wrong directions, a teenage wanna-be detective who’s also an inveterate liar, and a host of other interesting characters, most of whom merely serve to redirect the course of justice until Fleming Stone shows up to set them all straight. (Summary by Winnifred Assmann) Caution: The book contains some stereotypical racism towards Swedes and Japanese, and Chapters 1, 2, and 21 contain several instances of an offensive and derogatory term to describe Italians.Copyright Detective Fiction Genre アート 世界 文学史・文学批評 社会科学
