#22- The Ebony Stag
"Tell me, Doctor, could the wound have been made by the antlers of an angry stag?"

With Scotland Yard overstretched, Anthony Bathurst is recruited to investigate the death of seventy-three year old Robert Forsyth in the village of Upchalke. Forsyth had been brutally attacked in his home and stabbed through the chest with an unknown weapon.

As suspicions form that Forsyth was not who he claimed to be, Bathurst is troubled by a particular detail of the case. Why was a model of a stag, carved from ebony, carefully placed next to the corpse - and then smashed to pieces?

#23 - Black Edged
The moment they entered, Anthony pointed to the floor and to a hand that protruded from beneath the bed.

Dr. Traquair is determined that either he or his wife should die. He decides to allow her to cut a deck of cards to see who will shoot whom - highest card wins.

As the winner of this deadly duel, Traquair takes flight, desperate to elude capture for his crime. Super-sleuth Anthony Bathurst takes up the chase, but it seems that, this time, he may be matching wits with someone just as crafty as he is. And when more corpses turn up, it looks as though the adversary might be far more ruthless than even Bathurst could have anticipated.

#26 - They Never Came Back
"I don't like any of it. He's either being prevented from going home by force . . . or else he'll never go home again."

'Lefty' Donovan, a boxer, leaves home after receiving a mysterious offer that seems too good to be true-and is never seen again. His wife, Flora, approaches Anthony Bathurst to look for her husband, but he fears the worst, especially when he discovers another fighter who had vanished in identical circumstances weeks earlier.

As time ticks down to a crucial bout, a body is found, suffering from terrible clawed lacerations, with a mysterious footprint nearby. The work of a mythical beast? The truth is that Bathurst finds himself up against an enemy even more monstrous . . .

#28 - Glittering Prizes
"It has been evident to me for some time that this country, the Empire and all that you and I hold dear are in deadly peril."

Mrs. Warren Clinton, the American millionaire, summons nine talented individuals to the Royal Sceptre Hotel. Her stated purpose-to save the British Empire. Through a series of fiendish intellectual tests, she whittles the numbers down to two-only for the chosen pair to be found murdered, and for Mrs. Clinton to have vanished without trace.

Faced with the possibility of an international conspiracy, rooted in Nazi Germany, Anthony Bathurst finds himself challenged as never before. Are all of the guests invited to the hotel exactly whom they appear to be? Who can be trusted-and who is a ruthless murderer?

#29 - Reverse the Charges
"What I smelt and what you smelt, Constable Wragg, was burning flesh!"

William Norman dies of shock after being burnt by hot coals. The Mallett constabulary first look for a motive amongst his fellow farmers. But when a second murder occurs by poisoning, and a third by drowning, it appears this is no farming dispute but the work of a serial killer stalking the streets.

With no indication of where the killer is going to strike next, Anthony Bathurst and Scotland Yard are initially at a complete loss. Are the killings random or are they following an unseen pattern? And how many more bodies will be needed to complete that pattern?

#30 - The Grim Maiden
"She came to me for help, Andrew, and I failed her. I failed her living, but I promise to God I won't fail her dead!"

Richard Arbuthnot is convinced that a crime will be committed. The odd behaviour of a man who shares his train to work in Kingsley raises suspicions-suspicions which soon drive Artbuthnot to contact detective Anthony Bathurst.

The next day, Bathurst is approached by Kathleen Regan to investigate the disappearance of her artist brother. When Bathurst discovers that Regan also lives in Kingsley, it seems that trouble is afoot in that parish.

#34 - Exit Sir John
Elisabeth slept! It is perhaps a matter for wonderment that her sleep was untroubled. For-had she but known it-she was so close to Terror and Tragedy! So close to Death and deaths-so close to the menace of 'Mr Levi'!

Mr Medlicott, a solicitor, heads to the country home of his old friend and client Sir John Wynward, to spend Christmas with Sir John's family and friends. But after a peaceful and enjoyable Christmas for all apart from Medlicott himself, Sir John dies on Boxing Night, sitting at his desk in his study-to all appearances, a heart attack.

But natural death is out of the question when both Medlicott and Gooch, the chauffeur, are found murdered. What was Medlicott so afraid of? What did Gooch know that got him killed? Who is the mysterious "Mr Levi", who sent notes to the victims demanding "the diamond"?

#35 - The Swinging Death
The nude body swung-right-left-as its weight played on the rope which the hook held.

Dr. Julian Field had a straightforward day ahead of him-a short train journey to visit his patient, the wife of Philip Stanhope of Stoke Pelly, and then a journey home. So what caused him to leave the station at an earlier station, Fullaford? Whatever it was apparently led him to St. Mark's Church. And whatever it was led to him being found hanging from the light fixture in the church porch . . .

Why were half of his clothes found in the font of the church, and the other half in the font of a different church? Why was his wife summoned in the dead of night to nearby Friar's Woodburn on a fool's errand? And why has a sample of Mrs Stanhope's sputum disappeared? As Anthony Bathurst and Andrew MacMorran investigate, they discover many secrets hiding behind the façade of village life-but which of them was strong enough to lead to murder?
