Mysteries abound in this crime novel by Fergus Hume. Mr. Fanks, detective of Scotland Yard, is not all he seems, for when off-duty, he assumes his real identity of Octavius Rixton, well-to-do idler. When the scent of a murder reaches him, he is instantly Mr. Fanks and on the pursuit. A guilty looking innkeeper nicknamed Queen Beelzebub and a suspicious doctor named Renshaw further complicate his beginning investigation, and he finds the body is a man with a tattoo on his arm that has been partially obliterated by a knife. Where no one is as he seems the mystery can only deepen before its solution. - Summary by Don W. Jenkins (8 hr 35 min)

super: classic Hume


(5 Sterne)

Although both readers were excellent, it would have been better if one or the other had read it all because after the voice changed from Don W Jenkins , it took me a while to get to grips who was who in the story when mark nelson took over the story; The story itself, is a classic Fergus Hume book full of lively interesting characters and plot twists ; I find it easier if I read and listen to some stories at the same time, and this was one of those due to the many characters in it. I found this one on project Gutenberg since it wasn’t in his collected novels on kindle; if you like Hume you’ll like JS Fletcher from the same era; murder intrigue and double or even triple identities

4 AKA'S, A POSSIBLE GUINNESS RECORD

One of the most convoluted tales ever contrived. Great fun and well-read. Enjoy.

Feh!

My two stars are for readers who , as usual, are excellent. The story not so much. It's far two complex with an over abundance of red herrings, mistaken identities and implausible plot twists. I was glad when it limped to a finish! I' ve enjoyed several other Hume mysteries but not this one.
