The red castle mystery

This brilliant new detective novel by the creator of Mr. Reginald Fortune introduces one of the most remarkable of all experts in criminology, Joshua Clunk, the one lawyer in London whom judges and Scotland Yard alike feared more than any other. But even Inspector Bell of the Yard dared not refuse his help in the terrible and sinister mystery of the man found dead beside a broken jar of leeches, of the book with a tracing, and of blood-red Luel Castle, inside whose ancient walls a strange drama of murder and violence plays out its thrilling course.
