Description
This illustrated sgathers six of John Alexander Ferguson’s finest detective novels—from moody psychological mysteries to sharp London whodunits—showcasing why Ferguson remains a notable voice of the Golden Age. Featuring The Man in the Dark, Death of Mr Dodsley, The Dark Geraldine, plus three others, this collection invites readers into shadowy corridors, remote Scottish moors and bookshops fraught with secrets. In The Man in the Dark, amateur detective Francis MacNab investigates a sinister death on a Highland estate, where whispers of superstition and spectral figures blur the lines between the natural and the uncanny. The Dark Geraldine similarly blends atmospheric tension, introducing a cryptic object and a haunting mystery that unsettles the quiet village of Gart. Both stories emphasize setting—each stone cottage, each moorland wind, becomes a character in its own right. By contrast, Death of Mr Dodsley moves the action to London. The victim is a respected second-hand bookseller, found murdered among his leaning shelves and dusty tomes. Inspector Wilkins must sift through literary rivalries, personal grudges, and the hidden lives of bibliophiles to uncover a killer in a milieu where everyone has something to hide. Throughout all six novels included here, Ferguson’s strengths are consistent: precise plotting, strong sense of place, and carefully drawn characters who feel human and flawed. Whether the danger is creeping through foggy hillsides (Night in Glengyle), or hidden among the stacks of a bookshop (Death of Mr Dodsley), each mystery holds its own pace and twist.
