Mr. Pottermack's Oversight (A Dr Thorndyke Mystery)

Meer over het boek

The narrative centers on Dr. Thorndyke, a medico-legal forensic investigator, as he navigates a crime mystery. Originally published in 1930, it showcases Richard Austin Freeman's evolution from emulating Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to establishing his unique style of the "inverted detective story," where the criminal's identity is revealed upfront, shifting the focus to the detective's investigative process. This republished edition includes a new introduction, enriching the context of Freeman's contributions to the genre.
