Description

The first in a new series of classic detective stories from the vaults of HarperCollins involves a disappearing corpse, a supernatural theory, and a genuinely shocking finale. â€œThe Detective Story Clubâ€, launched by Collins in 1929, was a clearing house for the best and most ingenious crime stories of the age, chosen by a select committee of experts.

Now, almost 90 years later, these books are the classics of the Golden Age, republished at last with the same popular cover designs that appealed to their original readers. â€œThis most entertaining detective story is concerned with an amazing crime.

The body of a wealthy man is discovered by his valet.

The valet hurried to a friend of the dead man to tell him of the tragedy.

They return to find the body gone! The motive of the murder becomes a deeper mystery still, and no clue seems to lead anywhere.

Little by little, however, evidence is built up round a theory, and clever detective work triumphs in the end.

For ingenuity and dramatic situations â€œThe Mayfair Mysteryâ€ is hard to beat.â€ First published in 1907 as 2835 Mayfair, the book had caught the imagination of the reading public for its thrilling twists, its wit and imagination, and was chosen to be one of the first 12 classic books released by the Club.
