The Trial for Murder - Charles Dickens - e-kniha

eBook: When you think of Charles Dickens\' ghost stories, you may first think of \'A Christmas Carol\' and the ghosts that visit Scrooge. However, \'The Trail for Murder\' is perhaps Dickens\' second best-known ghost tale. Written in 1865, \'The Trial for Murder\' is a short story in which the ghost of a murder victim materialises to the foreman of the jury at his own murder trial. In this supernatural horror story, the ghost harasses the jurors and witnesses to ensure that his murderer is found guilty. While \'The Trial for Murder\' might not be considered scary by our modern-day standards it was one of the first ghost stories widely published and is a great read for fans of films like \'The Sixth Sense\'.

But they might have heard of the great Montgomery Bonbon, the well-dressed gentleman detective who (apart from the hat and moustache) looks suspiciously like a 10-year-old girl. Their newest case: solving the mystery surrounding a highly suspicious death at the Hornville Museum.Together they'll interview some dodgy witnesses, scour the scene for clues and - above all - hope no one notices that Bonnie and Montgomery are never in the same room at the same time...

The Murder on Yarmouth Sands - Edgar Wallace - e-kniha

eBook: On July 15th, 1912, the body of Dora Grey was found on Yarmouth Beach. Apparently strangled, this became known as ‘The Bootlace Murder,’ believed by investigators to be the work of a serial killer. ‘The Murder in Yarmouth’ is a collection of Wallace’s writings as a journalist at the time of the murder. Chasing the clues and the suspects, he gives us insight into the forensic and psychological procedures of the time. However, was the wrong man punished? A superb read for fans of true crime and those with an interest in the police protocols of yesteryear. Born in London, Edgar Wallace (1875 – 1932) was an English writer so prolific that his publisher claimed that he was responsible for a quarter of all books sold in England. Leaving school at the age of 12, Wallace made his first steps into the literary world by selling newspapers on the corner of Fleet Street. He worked as a war correspondent after joining the army at age 21, which honed his writing abilities. This led to the creation of his first book ‘The Four Just Men.’ Wallace is best remembered as the co-creator of ‘King Kong,’ which has been adapted for film 12 times (most notably directed by ‘Lord of the Rings’ director, Peter Jackson, and starring Jack Black and Naomi Watts). However, he leaves behind an extensive body of work, including stories such as ‘The Crimson Circle’ and ‘The Flying Squad’.

The Benson Murder Case - S.S. Van Dine - e-kniha

eBook: When playboy stockbroker Alvin Benson is found dead in his New York mansion with a bullet through his head, it sends shock waves through the city that never sleeps. Detectives descend - and so does amateur detective Philo Vance, who immediately notices that Benson's toupee and false teeth are missing. With the police always two steps behind, Vance sets off in pursuit of a mysterious killer. Along the way, skeletons fall out of every cupboard he opens in the homes of New York's rich and powerful. Can Vance dodge danger, negotiate the petty politics and catch the killer? 'The Benson Murder Case' is ideal for fans of other amateur sleuths, including Agatha Christie's 'Miss Marple' and 'Poirot' and the wannabe detectives in Richard Osman's 'The Thursday Murder Club'. S.S. Van Dine (1888-1939) is the novelist pseudonym of American art critic Willard Huntington Wright. As an art critic, he was an influential name in pre-First World War New York, using a pseudonym when writing detective novels. He created the popular fictional amateur detective Philo Vance in the 1920s when he was seriously ill and confined to bed for many months. His 12 Philo Vance novels made him one of the best-selling US authors in the inter-war years.
