Beschreibung

In "The Solution of a Remarkable Case," John R. Coryell masterfully weaves a narrative that combines elements of mystery and psychological depth, embodying the conventions of early 20th-century detective fiction. The novel showcases intricate plotting, vivid characterizations, and a distinctive prose style that reflects the author's keen eye for detail and understanding of the human condition. Set against the backdrop of a rapidly modernizing society, Coryell explores themes of morality, justice, and the cognitive processes behind crime-solving, which is emblematic of the era's literary preoccupations with crime and social order. John R. Coryell, an influential figure in the genre of detective fiction, brought a background in journalism and a profound fascination with the human psyche to his writing. His experiences in investigative reporting honed his ability to create suspenseful narratives imbued with psychological insight. Coryell's exposure to contemporary social issues and the complexities of the law informed his representation of characters and their motivations, making his work both timely and timeless, resonating with readers eager for cerebral challenges. I wholeheartedly recommend "The Solution of a Remarkable Case" to anyone interested in an intellectually stimulating mystery that transcends mere entertainment. Coryell's adept storytelling and rich character development invite readers to engage with not only the plot but the underlying philosophical inquiries that arise from the pursuit of truth.

    "The Adventure of the Devil's Foot" is one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Arthur Conan Doyle. It is one of eight stories in the cycle collected as His Last Bow. Doyle ranked "The Adventure of the Devil's Foot" ninth in his list of his twelve favorite Holmes stories.
    Holmes and Dr. Watson find themselves at Poldhu in Cornwall one spring for the former's health, but the holiday ends with a bizarre event. Mr. Mortimer Tregennis, a local gentleman, and Mr. Roundhay, the local vicar, come to Holmes to report that Tregennis's two brothers have gone insane, and his sister has died. Tregennis had gone to visit them in their village ('Tredannick Wollas'), played whist with them, and then left. When he came back in the morning, he found them still sitting in their places at the table, the brothers, George and Owen, laughing and singing, and the sister, Brenda, dead. The housekeeper had discovered them in this state, and fainted. The vicar has not been to see them yet. Tregennis says that he remembers one brother looking through the window, and then he himself turned to see some "movement" outside. He declares that the horrific event is the work of the devil. Mortimer Tregennis was once estranged from his siblings by the matter of dividing the proceeds from the sale of the family business, but he insists that all was forgiven, although he still lives apart from them. The doctor who was summoned, reckoned that she had been dead for six hours. He also collapsed into a chair for a while after arriving.
