The first book featuring Ben, the lovable, humorous ex-sailor and
down-at-heels rascal who can't help running into trouble. Ben is
back home from the Merchant Navy, penniless as usual and looking
for digs in fog-bound London. Taking shelter in an abandoned old
house, he stumbles across a dead body - and scarpers. Running into
a detective, Gilbert Fordyce, the reluctant Ben is persuaded to
return to the house and investigate the mystery of the corpse -
which promptly disappears! The vacant No.17 is the rendezvous for a
gang of villains, and the cowardly Ben finds himself in the thick
of thieves with no way of escape. Ben's first adventure, No.17,
began life in the 1920s as an internationally successful stage play
and was immortalised on film by the legendary Alfred Hitchcock. Its
author, J. Jefferson Farjeon, wrote more than 60 crime thrillers,
eight featuring Ben the tramp, his most popular character.
