odlična očuvanost, malo oštećenje prednje korice

A richly entertaining and exciting collection of mystery and detective stories from the golden age of crime fiction. This was a period when crimes were solved by the wit and ingenuity of the sleuth who only had his own intelligence to rely on rather than a battery of scientific devices and procedures employed by the modern crime solver.
Within these pages you will meet such fascinating sleuths as G. K. Chesterton`s Mr Pond, Ernest Bramah`s remarkable blind detective, Max Carrados, who can read newspapers by allowing his sensitive fingers to run over the print, Craig Kennedy, `the American Sherlock Holmes` created by Arthur B. Reeve, and Jacques Futrelle`s Professor S. F. X. Van Dusen, `The Thinking Machine` amongst others. Tales by Charles Dickens, Wilkie Collins, Arnold Bennett, Rudyard Kipling, Edgar Allan Poe and Arthur Conan Doyle will thrill and puzzle you.
