<DIV><B>An intrepid young journalist investigates the murder of an unknown man in this spellbinding mystery from the Golden Age of detective fiction</B><BR /><BR /> On his way home after a long night&rsquo;s work, newspaper editor Frank Spargo stumbles across a crime scene on Middle Temple Lane in the heart of London&rsquo;s legal district. An elderly man lies dead in an entryway, his nose bloodied. He wears an expensive suit and a fashionable gray cap, but the police find nothing of value in his pockets, and no identifying documents of any kind.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> Unable to sleep, Spargo pays a visit to the mortuary in the early hours of the morning and learns that a crumpled piece of paper has been recovered from a hole in the dead man&rsquo;s waistcoat. Strangely, the name and address it bears are familiar to Spargo. Succumbing to his reporter&rsquo;s instincts, he vows to get the story and help Scotland Yard uncover the identities of both victim and killer.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> President Woodrow Wilson greatly admired <I>The Middle Temple Murder</I>, and his public praise of the novel helped to popularize J. S. Fletcher&rsquo;s books in the United States.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> This ebook features a new introduction by Otto Penzler and has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.</DIV>
