Secrets is the 4th in the Jules Poiret series by Frank Howell Evans. This early 1900's series supposedly was inspired by Sherlock Holmes, and supposedly in turn inspired Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot. The book description on Amazon US is succinct:
Quote:
|
Inspector Watkins asks detective Jules Poiret to help him find a compromising letter, which was stolen by a blackmailer.
|
It's free on Amazon US, at least, for who knows how long.

NOTE: This, like many (all?) of these Frank Howell Evans "books" is quite short - Amazon lists it at 19 pages...
