Who Killed Lord Henry Rollestone?

At six o'clock on a dark, misty October afternoon, Gerald Stapleton returns home to his bachelor apartment at Malmesbury Mansions. From the darkness of his own doorway, he is surprised to see a tall and beautiful woman descending the stairs, supporting herself with one hand against the wall and clasping her cloak close to her with the other - a look of fear on her face. A look which is apparently explained when, visiting his friend Lord Henry Rollestone in the flat above his, Stapleton finds that the peer has been murdered....

First published by Herbert Jenkins in 1924, this is a vintage murder mystery from the golden age of crime fiction.
