When he's drawn into the investigation of a dead body found on the steps of the highly respectable chambers of Middle Temple Lane, near London?s law courts, Spargo, a journalist for the Watchman, ends up unraveling a mystery that stretches back many decades and involves not one but two wrongly convicted criminals, a well-known politician with a secret past and a good friend with a surprising unknown identity. I enjoyed listening to this book - it is a great example of early detective fiction in America. I could just imagine it as a black and white movie starring Humphrey Bogart!! My only complaint is that the mystery is solved almost too easily at the end - Spargo suddenly sees it all come together and the book is quickly wrapped up, leaving the reader with a sense of incompleteness. The rest of the book is well-written with a plot that is just convoluted enough to keep the reader's interest without becoming too confusing. I would definitely recommend it.
