This collection of short stories, published in 1905, features a series of bizarre mysteries, each of which involves an exclusive club that caters to those with unusual professions. Here Chesterton introduces one of his most original characters, Rupert Grant, an eccentric private detective who works by intuition rather than deduction, a kind of anti-Holmes.
