Here are two thrilling episodes torn from his casebook. In ‘The Treasure House’, will Mr Reeder discover a connection between Larry O’Ryan, a burglar he befriends, and the murder of an ex-constable? In ‘The Shadow Man’, Mr Reeder’s talents are stretched across oceans as he tries to solve a series of cross-Atlantic bank frauds.

His choice was limited to popular magazines and poor quality paperbacks. Lane’s disappointment at the range of books available led him to found a company – and change the world. In 1935 the Penguin was born, but it took until the late 1940s for the Crime and Mystery series to emerge. The genre thrived in the post-war austerity of the 1940s, and reached heights of popularity by the 1960s. Suspense, compelling plots and captivating characters ensure that once again you need look no further than the Penguin logo for the scene of the perfect crime.
