The Thorpe Hazell Mysteries is a classic collection of detective stories by Victor Whitechurch, featuring one of the earliest examples of a railway detective, Thorpe Hazell. Hazell, an unconventional and astute amateur sleuth, solves crimes with a sharp intellect, keen attention to detail, and deep knowledge of railway systems. These stories are particularly unique due to Hazell’s unusual methods, including his focus on diet and physical fitness, and the use of intricate railway knowledge to unravel mysteries.

This complete series, presented in an illustrated edition, brings to life the atmospheric settings of railways, station yards, and train compartments, offering readers a vivid and nostalgic portrayal of early 20th-century detective fiction. From ingenious heists to perplexing murders, Hazell's adventures are filled with suspense and cleverly devised plots.

Whitechurch’s innovative blend of railway culture with detective fiction creates a distinctive and captivating reading experience. This collection is a must-read for fans of classic mysteries, railway enthusiasts, and those who appreciate the intellectual charm of early sleuths.
