The Moon Rock by Arthur J. Rees Pdf

After the death of his wife Robert Turold, a hard and bitter man, is just one step away from proving his noble linage and claim to a great estate. This is his life-long dream and the last obstacle to achieving it is his despised daughter Sisily, whom he intends to disinherit. But just as he is about to reach his dream he is found shot dead in a room locked from the inside. The mysterious death may look like a suicide at first but Detective Barrant and Inspector Dawfield suspect that the truth is more complicated and are determined to solve the puzzle. This fast-paced detective story unfolds through the tangles of complicated family ties and secrets, suspicious servants, and a mysterious Cornish legend. The Moon Rock was first published in 1922.

The Moon Rock by Arthur John Rees Pdf

The voice of the clergyman intoned the last sad hope of humanity, the final prayer was said, and the mourners turned away, leaving Mrs. Turold to take her rest in a bleak Cornish churchyard among strangers, far from the place of her birth and kindred.The fact would not have troubled her if she had known. In life she had been a nonentity; in death she was not less. At least she could now mix with her betters without reproach, free (in the all-enveloping silence) from the fear of betraying her humble origin. Debrett's Peerage was unimportant in the grave; breaches of social etiquette passed unnoticed there; the wagging of malicious tongues was stopped by dust.

The Shrieking Pit by Arthur J. Rees Pdf

When archaeologist Roger Glenthorpe is found murdered in a remote seaside inn on the Norfolk coast, it seems to the local police to be an open and shut case. The only question is whether the shell shocked soldier that is arrested will be found guilty or judged insane due to furor epilepticus. But when private detective Grant Colwyn is called in to investigate he finds more than one reason to think the young man is innocent. But who then did commit murder? The cash strapped innkeeper? The innkeeper's mother who is confined to her room because she is given to violent outbursts? The innkeeper's beautiful daughter? What role does the spectral White Lady play? Does her appearance really presage death? And what is the source of the hideous shrieking that comes from the prehistoric flint pit where the body was found?
