Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Dr. Priestley Investigates by John Rhode is a classic Golden Age detective novel that delivers everything readers love about traditional British mystery fiction: a baffling crime, meticulous clues, and a brilliantly logical detective who plays fair with the reader.At the center of this classic British crime novel is Dr. Lancelot Priestley, a renowned mathematician whose sharp intellect and scientific reasoning make him uniquely suited to untangle the most perplexing cases. When a seemingly impossible murder confounds the police, Dr. Priestley applies calm analysis, careful observation, and rigorous logic to expose the truth-hallmarks of the finest puzzle mystery fiction and locked-room-style detective stories.Written during the height of the Golden Age of Detective Fiction, this novel exemplifies the era's devotion to fair-play mysteries, where every clue is present and every solution earned. John Rhode's precise plotting, subtle misdirection, and respect for the reader place Dr. Priestley Investigates alongside the great works of Agatha Christie, John Dickson Carr, and Anthony Berkeley.
