About this listen
A short story from the British Library Crime Classic collection Murder by the Book.
Private detective Francis Quarles visits a man with a valuable collection of manuscripts written by murderers. During his stay, the man is killed after drinking cyanide-laced port. A cryptic literary clue in the front page of a book offers the only indication of who may be responsible.
The British Library wishes to acknowledge that outdated language is used regarding disability in this story.
