- You get a wonderfully methodical early police procedural, with Inspector French tracing a human body packed into a cask through shipping records, witnesses, and shifting alibis. It takes its time and occasionally feels procedural in the old-fashioned sense, but the patient reconstruction is quietly satisfying.
- A murder among friends, with a snowfall's tracks at the heart of the evidence, told by a thoughtful Edwardian narrator. Written before detective fiction hardened into formula, so it moves slowly and treats guilt as a moral fact, not just a solution.
