Philo Gubb, Correspondence School Detective by Ellis Butler Pdf

The humorous case files of a not-so-super sleuth Anyone can be a detective—as long as he has postage and a little bit of gumption. That’s all it takes to make it at the Rising Sun Detective Agency Correspondence School, and it’s a good thing because Philo Gubb never met a mystery he could solve on purpose. Whether puzzling over the nature of a hard-boiled egg or trying to grasp the true value of a two-cent stamp, Philo Gubb never fails to underwhelm. His disguises may be dismal and his speech may be uncouth, but there is no denying his persistence and his good-natured disposition. Somehow or another, he always cracks the case—just don’t ask him to explain how he did it. Combining laugh-out-laud satire and scintillating suspense, Philo Gubb, Correspondence School Detective is an early masterpiece of the mystery genre. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.

Philo Gubb by Ellis Parker Butler Pdf

Excerpt from Philo Gubb: Correspondence-School Detective; With Illustrations Walking Close along the wall, to avoid the creaking floor boards, Philo Gubb, paper-hanger and student of the Rising Sun Detective Agency's Correspond ence School of Detecting, tiptoed to the door of the bedroom he shared with the mysterious Mr. Critz. In appearance Mr. Gubb was tall and gaunt, re minding one of a modern Don Quixote or a human flamingo; by nature Mr. Gubb was the gentlest and most simple-minded of men. Now, bending his long, angular body almost double, he placed his eye to a crack in the door panel and stared into the room. Within, just out of the limited area of Mr. Gubb's vision, Roscoe Critz paused in his work and lis tened carefully. He heard the sharp whistle of Mr. Cubh's breath as it out against the sharp edge of the crack in the panel, and he knew he was being spied upon. He placed his chubby hands on his knees and smiled at the door, while a red flush of triumph spread over his face.
