The Big Bow Mystery

About this ebook
The first of the locked door mysteries. Landlady Mrs. Drabdump knocks on her lodger's door and when there is no answer she summons Inspector Grodman. They break down the locked door to find the man in bed with his throat cut. This classic book is both a mystery thriller and a satire of Victorian London.
Israel Zangwill
Zangwill, the son of Latvian and Polish immigrants, was born in London’s East End and showed literary promise as early as eighteen. A teacher for some years after he graduated from London University, he eventually left the profession to write full-time, publishing hundreds of essays, as well as novels, short stories and plays produced in London and New York. His work concentrated on political, social and Jewish issues but The Big Bow Mystery was his only venture into detective fiction.
