Eight stories recount the adventures of Horne Fisher, a socialite who uses his powerful deductive gifts to investigate crimes committed on the sprawling country estates of the aristocracy. Called “dazzlingly executed and richly atmospheric” by The Armchair Detective, this collection is filled with evocative portraits of pre-World War I society.
