Death of a Shadow

A detective story, it has been said, ought first and foremost, to provide a puzzle. In the second place, it ought to furnish all the clues whereby the puzzle may be solved. In Death of a Shadow Anthony Wynne has fulfilled both of these conditions. Dr. Eustace Hailey, big, kindly, imperturbable, never encountered a more baffling case than this murder on Rylock sands. Only perhaps his method of relating physical facts to the facts of the mind could have unlocked the secret. This latest adventure of Dr. Hailey is likely to find a welcome among all those who have enjoyed his many former triumphs.
