A third collection of full-length adventures for R. Austen Freeman's great forensic detective, Dr John Thorndyke.
First, in The D'Arblay Mystery, the body of Julius D'Arblay is found beneath the surface of a shallow woodland pond, putting Thorndyke on the trail of a very calculated murder.
Then, in A Certain Dr Thorndyke, the detective investigates a theft that provoked a resolute young Englishman to flee the country, and soon discovers unexpected mysteries; while As a Thief in the Night requires him to unravel a case of murder by poison, which there appears to be not a particle of positive evidence against any individual in the victim's household.
Finally, in Mr Pottermack's Oversight, a set of footprints pique Thorndyke's interest in the disappearance of a bank employee, despite the careful planning of the ingenious and meticulous Mr Pottermack.

In the Welsh borders, isolated by heavy snow and flooding from the thaw, cut off from telephone access, a tragedy has occurred. Old Dr Robinson known to be 'a menace' on the roads has met his end in a car crash, his big saloon thrown from the track down the steep hillside. But when the police arrive there is more to the tragedy than meets the eye: why was there a second body - an outsider to these parts - in the back of the vehicle?

George Smiley has left the Circus. With the wreckage of the West’s spy war against the Soviets strewn across Europe, he has eyes only for a more peaceful life. And indeed, with his marriage more secure than ever, there is a rumor that George Smiley might almost be happy. But Control has other plans. A Russian agent has defected in the most unusual of circumstances, and the man he was sent to kill in London is nowhere to be found. Smiley reluctantly agrees to one last simple task: interview Szusanna, a Hungarian émigré and employee of the missing man, and sniff out a lead.

When a failed entrepreneur is temporarily left in charge of his aunt's huge gothic home, he knows he must be able to make a profit from it somehow. Murder, he decides, is the only way to do it. For Madingley Grange is the perfect venue for a 1930s murder-mystery weekend, and Simon Hannaford – with the reluctant help of his long-suffering sister – soon hatches a plan for money-spinning mayhem. From the conservatory to the claret cellar, the clues are carefully sprinkled. But when the guests arrive, it is obvious that the game won't be going as planned.
