MAX CARRADO’S MYSTERIES
(By Ernest Bramah. Hodder and Stoughton. 7/6 net.)
Here is a totally blind detective, with brains and an uncanny sixth sense, (largely composed of ratiocination to the n-th degree) that leads him unerringly to the solution of various baffling mysteries of crime, in the presence of which those nossessed of a complete outfit of sensefaculties are hopelessly perplexed. “The Secret of Headlam Heights” —a war-spy secret —“The Mystery of the Vanished Petition Crown” —a valuable coin mystery —“The Holloway Flat Tragedy”—an ingenious murder plot—and many others, are solved. uMnivelled and brought to i'n inevitable climaxTiy this blind sleuth who has but to run his tremendously sensitive liligers over newspapers or written letters to read them “at a glance. A most cleverly constructed series of short stories for those who like real tciy’i propositions to disentangle. Io will be an astute reader who forestalls the author in the solution of any of those mysteries.
