Description:
First published in 1929, ''The Case of Sir Adam Braid'' by Molly Thynne (d. 1950), public domain worldwide.
The action starts on board ship when a man is found strangled. At first it is assumed that the killing is associated with the victim’s shady activities in Beunos Aires and Detective Chief Inspector Shand, who is on board while returning to England following an extradition case, is annoyed that he cannot discover the culprit. Arriving in England, Shand encounters his old friend Jasper Mellish, who is meeting the ship to greet Lady Dalberry, a recently bereaved widow who is related by marriage to Mellish’s ward, Carol Summers. When Carol comes of age she will be one of the wealthiest women in the country. Soon it becomes clear that the danger is not confined to the Enriqueta. Somebody is in ruthless pursuit of Carol’s wealth and is willing to kill to achieve their ends.
The Murder on the Enriqueta has a clever, intricate plot and a strong, attractive and courageous heroine.
----The Golden Age, Molly Thynne (1881-1950) by Carol Westron
