About this ebook
He said, ‘Where have I got to?’
She came right up to him and took hold of his wrist.
‘Now don’t you worry. The doctor will be along to see you in a minute.’
‘What do I want a doctor for? I’m all right.’
She said, ‘That’s fine. You were in a train smash. You just had a bump on the head.’
He said, ‘Oh——’ and then, ‘It feels all right.’
She went away after that, and presently she came back again with some sort of milky cereal that tasted like baby food.
Patricia Wentworth
Patricia Wentworth (1878–1961) was one of the masters of classic English mystery writing. Born in India as Dora Amy Elles, she began writing after the death of her first husband, publishing her first novel in 1910. In the 1920s, she introduced the character who would make her famous: Miss Maud Silver, the former governess whose stout figure, fondness for Tennyson, and passion for knitting served to disguise a keen intellect. Along with Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple, Miss Silver is the definitive embodiment of the English style of cozy mysteries.
