The Dorrington Deed-Box (Illustrated)
Horace Dorrington of Dorrington & Hicks, private inquiry agents, is one of the first great anti-heroes in crime fiction. A talented investigator intent on making money, he is no gentleman amateur. Getting rich by strictly legal means would require years of hard work, and Dorrington has no intention of waiting.
When he takes on a case he looks for an angle that will allow him to enrich himself. If this happens to be at the expense of the client, Dorrington is unlikely to lose any sleep over the matter. Only if he can’t find an opening for shady dealings will he investigate the case to the best of his ability, and endeavor to produce a favorable result for his client. After all, in order to keep the business going he needs some satisfied customers.
Dorrington has been getting away with all this because he is a man of immense charm and an extraordinarily good liar. Just how far will charm and a total lack of scruples take a man? Find out in this enormously entertaining, beautifully illustrated story collection.
