Trent Intervenes & Other Stories (Electronic book text, New edition)

Artist, connoisseur and private detective, Philip Trent, features in this classic and unputdownable collection, comprising eleven short stories. Included are 'The Genuine Tabard', in which a clergyman and unique objets d'art are involved in a neat confidence trick; 'The Foolproof Lift', in which a blackmailing valet is found murdered; and 'The Ordinary Hairpins', in which a golden-haired opera singer commits suicide - but Trent is wisely suspicious.
