Description:
No. 13 Beaumaris Place was the last remaining
private residence in a street long since given up
to apartment houses. Dr Lancelot Priestley was
all too familiar with its rather gloomy interior,
for he had been in the habit of calling there to
see its owner, his old friend Sir John Claverton,
though circumstances had prevented him from
visiting for some time.
When he did at last call again at No. 13 it was
to find Sir John ill and his doctor uneasy. Ona
second visit he was informed that Sir John had
died suddenly the day before. The family
physician was not the only person to find
circumstances which seemed to him suspicious,
and after consultation with Dr Priestley there
was little doubt in anyone’s mind that Sir John
Claverton was poisoned.
Nevertheless, the case presented several
baffling aspects, but by ingenious deductions
from slender clues Dr Priestley eventually
succeeded in finding a satisfactory solution to
the case that became famous as The Claverton
Mystery.
This title was first published in the Crime
Club in 1933.
