The Case of Sir Adam Braid

>>*"The blood's coming from a cut at the back of his neck," she said slowly. "He couldn't have done that in falling. Some one must have--"* >Sir Adam Braid, the distinguished artist, was a cantankerous old man. Not well-liked by most of his family and associates, he didn't care if he added one more enemy to the list by changing his will ... but not before death paid a visit to his London flat, and Sir Adam was found stabbed through the neck. Chief-Inspector Fenn takes charge of the case and soon notices the butler seems more frightened than shocked - but what, if anything, did the butler do? After all, there is a plethora of suspects, including penniless relatives and some curious occupants of the neighbouring flats. Fenn must put the clues together, and bring a murderer to justice in this classic golden age mystery. *The Case of Sir Adam Braid* was first published in 1930.
