Detective Stories – The Serial

The Detective has been a mainstay of fiction writing ever since we can remember. Their deductive powers, their intuition and fleet-footed grasp of every detail can often turn the unlikeliest situation, or bunch of red herrings, into a breakthrough to capture even the most ingenious and dastardly of criminals. In this series our classic authors explore not only various themes, such as Occult Detectives, Female Detectives, Curious Crimes and a whole host more, but also bring a range and depth to the whole culture of criminality as we send in the Long Arm of the Law to bring justice on behalf of the society it serves. Back in the day the world was awash with magazines and periodicals featuring short stories from every possible genre. But perhaps the most popular were those that contained a constant stream of the adventures and exploits of the greatest detectives and sleuths of their day. 01 - The Detective - The Serial - An Introduction 02 - The Final Problem by Arthur Conan Doyle 03 - The Arrest of Arsene Lupin by Maurice LeBlanc 04 - The Affair at the Novelty Theatre by Baroness Orczy 05 - The Haverstock Hill Murder by George R Sims 06 - Conscience by Richard Marsh 07 - The Dead Hand by L T Meade and Robert Eustace 08 - The Frewin Miniatures by Baroness Orczy 09 - A Broken Trust by Elizabeth Corbett 10 - The Outside Ledge.
