Publisher's Synopsis
The first three novels in the popular Denton mystery series featuring an amateur sleuth you'll never forget.
THE FRIGHTENED MAN
When a clearly disturbed man shows up one evening saying he has just seen Jack the Ripper, Denton dismisses him as a fantasist. But the same night, the mutilated body of a teenage prostitute is found. Could the two events be connected?
THE BOHEMIAN GIRL
Denton is used to getting unconventional mail but one letter in particular peaks his curiosity. A note from a young woman, Mary, saying she's in terrible danger and needs his help. But the letter is months old and was only forwarded to him when the buyer of a painting found it stuck behind the frame. Presumably whatever Mary was frightened of has already happened. So why did she hide the note behind this particular painting instead of he sending it?
THE SECOND WOMAN
When a mysterious Polish woman is murdered next door, Denton suspects there is more than meets the eye. Could the murdered woman be the victim of some sort of political conspiracy?
