A detective mystery book set in Bayswater, London, during a recent historical period.

On a foggy November night in Bayswater, London, Perry's life takes a sensational twist. Living with his Aunt Miss Jenkins in the quaint Markendale Square, Perry enjoys their nightly routine of reading thrilling tales. However, fiction soon blurs into reality when Perry stumbles upon a gruesome murder during his evening walk, launching him into a real-life mystery more intricate and dark than his aunt's favorite stories.

The murdered man, Mr. Ashton, a recent arrival from overseas, is discovered in a passageway, and Perry quickly alerts the police. As Inspector Drillford begins the investigation, Perry recounts his encounter with a mysterious young man fleeing the scene. The plot thickens when they inform Ashton's ward, Miss Wickham, and her chaperone, Mrs. Killenhall. Miss Wickham's limited knowledge of Mr. Ashton, connected to her late father's estate in Australia, only deepens the intrigue.

Suspicions arise, and the young man is soon arrested while attempting to pawn a diamond ring belonging to Ashton. Despite this, Perry believes there's more beneath the surface and continues his own investigation. The truth slowly unravels when Miss Jenkins' keen observations lead to Dr. Cortelyon, a prominent neighbor, revealing him as the true murderer. Cortelyon's attempt to obscure Miss Wickham's rightful inheritance and true identity is exposed, leading to his arrest. As hidden identities and deceptive plots come to light, Miss Wickham's claim to the Ellingham estate is rightfully restored, culminating in a satisfying resolution for all.
