Mystery and Crime Freeman, R Austin: The Penrose Mystery V1.1 2007-06-19

JSWolf · 06-19-2007, 04:03 PM

This was just recently released on Project Gutenberg in Australia.

And now for another adventure in the thrilling saga of the Dr. Thorndyke Mysteries with The Penrose Mystery!

Quote:

Penrose is an eccentric old man in possession of some dazzling gems, which he won't insure. When Dr Thorndyke is alerted to a burglary at his house, a scrap of paper is found with the word 'lobster' on it and two Latin words, and Penrose has fled in panic after a car accident. The police are clearly mystified but Thorndyke in his indelible style is on track, hunting down a fugitive, testing a theory and getting to the bottom of a tantalising, complex mystery.

This story fits in between For the Defence: Dr Thorndyke and Felo de se?.

New version up because of a mistake in Book Cleaner.

I actually uploaded this a few days ago, Jon, as the start of a new "Dr Thorndyke Omnibus Vol 5", but never mind

.

JSWolf · 06-20-2007, 05:45 AM

I see the problem. I didn't have the ebook list sorted by author and thus when I was looking at your omnibuses, I only saw up to 4 and thus didn't remember that it was posted. My mistake. If you like, I can remove the thread. Unless others want this copy here as well. I didn't mean to duplicate it.

No, I see no need to remove it - people might prefer it as a separate download. I'm going to add the other new one into the Omnibus too - I prefer to have them that way. It's good to give people the choice.
