Beschreibung
"The murderer must have crept stealthily behind Pearson and taken him all unawares-unsuspecting."
Leonard Pearson was not a pleasant individual - a likely blackmailer - so it came as no surprise when he met a sticky end. Attacked from behind, his head smashed with a blunt instrument, the only tangible clue lay in the identity of his final visitor. Captain Hilary Frant called on Pearson that night, and was heard threatening Pearson. And then his heavy walking-stick went mysteriously missing . . .
Frant's family, once he is arrested, have but one recourse - send for Anthony Bathurst. But the trail is already growing cold. With the hanging judge, Mr. Justice Heriot, presiding over the trial, matters seem bleaker still. But an unexpected second death soon turns everything on its head . . .
The Padded Door was first published in 1932. This new edition features an introduction by Steve Barge.

Über den Autor
Brian Flynn was born in 1885 in Leyton, Essex. He won a scholarship to the City Of London School, and from there went into the civil service. In World War I he served as Special Constable on the Home Front, also teaching "Accountancy, Languages, Maths and Elocution to men, women, boys and girls" in the evenings, and acting in his spare time.It was a seaside family holiday that inspired Brian Flynn to turn his hand to writing in the mid-twenties. Finding most mystery novels of the time "mediocre in the extreme", he decided to compose his own. Edith, the author's wife, encouraged its completion, and after a protracted period finding a publisher, it was eventually released in 1927 by John Hamilton in the UK and Macrae Smith in the U.S. as The Billiard-Room Mystery.The author died in 1958. In all, he wrote and published 57 mysteries, the vast majority featuring the super-sleuth Anthony Bathurst.
