Publisher's Synopsis
The Mystery of 31 New Inn R. Austin Freeman In the grand tradition of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's great detective Sherlock Holmes comes John Thorndyke, a brainy, meticulous, scientific, British sleuth. The plot involves a contested will and a strange illness. The two appear unrelated until Dr Thorndyke and colleague Dr. Jervis piece together the clues -- broken glass, a veiled woman, candles and an upside down picture.
