About this listen

Unravel the riveting mystery of the Hampstead Murder. The illustrious High Court Judge, Sir Horace Fewbanks, is found dead in Hampstead, England, with a bullet wound. The case falls into the hands of Private Detective Crewe, a wealthy bachelor who finds crime solving more intellectually stimulating than a chess match with the Russian champion, Turgieff. Assisting Crewe is a savvy fourteen-year-old Cockney boy, Joe, whom Crewe rescued from a life of crime. As the duo navigates a maze of clues and a sea of suspects, they face an inquest, a trial, and eventually uncover an elegantly crafted resolution. This is a classic whodunit filled with thrilling suspense, intrigue and intellectual challenges. (Summary by Maikki)Copyright Retro Radio Art Literary History & Criticism True Crime
