HI-IS & POD. Paperback. NEW. In a classic work of detective fiction that was written over a century ago, the story revolves around a young sub-editor named Frank Spargo. Spargo is portrayed as one of the earliest protagonists of a sub-genre that focuses on investigative journalism. The narrative begins with Spargo working at The Watchman, a prominent newspaper located on Fleet Street in London. After the completion of the London edition, Spargo leaves the office and finds himself passing through the Middle Temple, which is situated just off Fleet Street. It is during this unexpected detour that he stumbles upon the lifeless body of an elderly gentleman who appears to have been brutally bludgeoned to death. While the police initially assume that the incident is a result of a failed robbery, Spargo's intuition tells him that there is more to this case than meets the eye. Driven by his desire to uncover the truth and secure a groundbreaking story, he decides to team up with a detective from Scotland Yard named Rathbury. Additionally, a young barrister named Breton becomes involved in the investigation as his address is the only clue found on the deceased man's person. Together, this unlikely trio embarks on a quest to solve the perplexing crime that has captured their attention. As they delve deeper into the investigation, they encounter a myriad of twists and turns that challenge their intellect and determination. The story unfolds as they meticulously gather evidence, interview witnesses, and follow leads in their pursuit of justice. Throughout their journey, Spargo's role as an investigative journalist proves invaluable. His keen eye for detail and relentless pursuit of the truth sets him apart from the traditional detectives of the time. While Rathbury relies on his experience and knowledge of police procedures, Breton's legal expertise aids in navigating the complexities of the case. Together, they form a formidable team, each contributing their unique skills to unravel the mystery. As the plot thickens, the trio uncovers a web of deceit, hidden motives, and unexpected connections. The deceased man's identity is gradually revealed, shedding light on his past and potential enemies. The investigation takes them to various locations across London, from the bustling streets of Fleet Street to the secretive corridors of the Middle Temple. Each step brings them closer to the truth, but also places them in increasing danger. As the climax approaches, Spargo, Rathbury, and Breton find themselves facing a formidable adversary who will stop at nothing to protect their secrets. The tension rises, and the stakes become higher than ever before. In a race against time, the trio must outsmart their opponent and bring justice to the deceased man and his family. In this captivating tale of mystery and intrigue, the reader is transported to a bygone era where journalism and detective work intertwine. The story serves as a testament to the power of collaboration, as Spargo, Rathbury, and Breton combine their skills and resources to solve a crime that has baffled the authorities. With its engaging plot, well-developed characters, and unexpected twists, this classic work of detective fiction continues to captivate readers, even after more than a century since its publication.
