Dora Myrl is a modern young woman of astonishing accomplishments, having been educated at Cambridge and trained as a medical doctor. Her profession, however, is that of private investigator - a lady detective whom men underestimate at their peril! In these twelve tales Dora pits her wits against villainous murderers, thieves, blackmailers and swindlers as she plumbs the depths of criminality hidden beneath the veneer of well-to-do nineteenth century society.
Originally published in 1900, this rare and supremely enjoyable collection of stories will delight all fans of classic crime fiction.
