The Leavenworth Case
Authorship not stated
You are Mr Raymond, a young lawyer called to the Leavenworth mansion after its owner is found shot dead in his own locked library, a page freshly missing from the desk where he had been working. Detective Ebenezer Gryce walks you through what does not fit: no forced door, no weapon, nothing stolen, while suspicion settles on the household, an heiress niece, the sister who raised the alarm, and a secretary who answers every question except those about them. The inquest calls Eleanore next.
