About this book

An early Freeman Wills Crofts novel from 1921, this is a classic country-house puzzle built around a single stubborn question: how did Sir William Ponson come to be found drowned in the river below his own estate? Accident, death, and murder all seem possible, and the family's tangled loyalties only cloud the picture. Inspector Tanner of Scotland Yard works the case with the sober, methodical care that became Crofts's signature, picking apart timetables and alibis until the truth has nowhere left to hide. Readers who like their detection unhurried and fair, with every clue laid honestly on the table, are the ones it rewards.
