First published in 1923, Jim Hanvey, Detective is a collection of
seven stories that originally appeared in The Saturday Evening Post
and features private eye Jim Hanvey in classic whodunit style
mysteries. Described as the "backwoods Nero Wolfe," the genial
Hanvey befriends "good guys" and criminals alike to get the job
done. Bank robberies, jewel heists, and all-purposes cons-none are
a match for Octavus Roy Cohen's waddling sleuth.

In this story we meet again the unique and human detective, David
Carroll. The inordinately sleepy little town of Karnak has been
jarred from its lethargy by a murder at Furness Lodge.
Alan Douglas found himself in a macabre masquerade that could only
have one ending-murder. He wore another man's face. He lived with
another man's woman. And he was to die another man's death.
When Spike Walters picked up a cab fare after midnight outside
Union Station during a driving snowstorm he considered himself
lucky. The fare, an attractive young woman, gave him an address on
the outskirts of town. Yet when he arrived at the address, the
woman was gone. In her place was a man, or rather, his body. This
is the mystery that Detective David Carroll must solve in...
