Description
In the heart of London's literary world, a brutal murder shatters the quiet charm of Charing Cross Road. Mr. Richard Dodsley, a well-known second-hand bookseller, is found dead in his shop—shot in cold blood amidst the dusty shelves and rare first editions. The scene is baffling: no sign of forced entry, no apparent motive, and a clientele made up of respectable writers, collectors, and publishers. Enter Inspector Wilkins of Scotland Yard, a thoughtful and methodical detective determined to untangle a mystery where nearly everyone has something to hide. As he delves into the victim’s relationships, rivalries, and hidden dealings, he uncovers a world of literary ambition, jealousy, and long-buried secrets. Is the motive professional, personal, or something even darker? With its rich atmosphere, clever plotting, and affectionate nods to the book trade, Death of Mr. Dodsley is a classic Golden Age whodunit that combines intellectual charm with suspenseful storytelling. Written by John Ferguson, a Scottish clergyman and occasional novelist, the book is both an engaging mystery and a tribute to the literary life of interwar Britain. Now rediscovered and reissued by the British Library Crime Classics series, this forgotten gem offers fans of traditional detective fiction a delightful and intelligent mystery—full of wit, character, and satisfying surprises.
