At a local tea shop, a lady journalist encounters a brilliant detective who's able to decode and solve some of the city's most complicated crimes. This is a thrilling narrative that hinges on the unique dynamic between its two protagonists. Polly Burton is a young journalist who stumbles across an elderly man at a London tea shop. She soon discovers his peculiar personality and dazzling intellect. Through a series of conversations, they discuss the city's most infamous criminal cases. With superior deductive skills, the old man's able to solve each mystery without leaving the comfort of his chair. Some of the stories featured in this vibrant collection include "The Theft at the English Provident Bank," "The Fenchurch Street Mystery" and " The Regent's Park Murder." The Old Man in the Corner is Baroness Orczy's take on the detective genre, which highlights a quirky and unexpected hero.
