Meet Walter Featherston, the acclaimed writer of detective stories, whose true identity remains a mystery to all but a few. Known to many as a seasoned traveller in society circles across Europe, and to the police as "Mr. Maltwood," Featherston has ready access to the upper echelons of Scotland Yard and the Sûreté Générale in Paris, whilst his knowledge of criminology and success in capturing criminals is recognized internationally.
In The Doctor of Pimlico, Featherston finds himself embroiled in a case involving Dr. Weirmarsh, a practicing surgeon on Vauxhall Bridge Road near Victoria Station, who is also the mastermind behind an international gang of criminals. Using General Sir Hugh Elcombe and his stepdaughter Enid as pawns in his schemes, Weirmarsh's hypnotic hold over his victims is both mysterious and terrifying.
As Featherston races to uncover the true identity and motivations of the enigmatic doctor of Pimlico, he must navigate a web of deceit and treachery that threatens to ensnare him as well.
Will he be able to solve the case and bring Weirmarsh to justice before it's too late?
Find out in this classic golden age detective novel.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The Second in the LONDON BOUND Series of must-have classic crime novels "Walter Fetherston was a writer of breathless mystery but he was the essence of mystery himself. Once the reader took up a book of his he never laid it down until he had read the final chapter. You, my reader, have more than once found yourself beneath his strange spell. And what was the secret of his success? He had been asked by numberless interviewers, and to them all he had made the same stereotyped reply: "I live the mysteries I write."" Writer of detective stories, Walter Featherston is himself a mystery to all his friends. To some he's a seasoned traveller known in society circles all over the continent. To the police he is known as "Mr Maltwood" with ready access to the upper echelons of Scotland Yard and the Surete Generale in Paris, his knowledge of criminology and his success in the pursuit of criminals recognised internationally. The Doctor of Pimlico is Dr Weirmarsh, by vocation a practicing surgeon on the Vauxhall Bridge Road, close to Victoria Station but by avocation, controller of an international gang of master criminals, engaged in schemes of remarkable ingenuity, unscrupulously using General Sir Hugh Elcombe to his own ends with Elcombe's step-daughter, Enid, unable to escape his hypnotic clutches too. Who is the mysterious doctor of Pimlico, and what is the strange hold that he has over people? How the evil machinations of the scoundrel Weirmarsh and his gang are thwarted by Featherston and Enid, together with the skilful use of double personalities, make this, the second in our London Bound series, a compelling and entertaining thriller from a renowned master of the mystery. Make sure you check out the other two in the series: The Charing Cross Mystery Search 978-1909349711 and the long-sought after Fatality in Fleet Street Search 978-1909349759 LONDON BOUND - A series of classic crime novels, largely from the Golden Age of detective fiction, faithfully transcribed, re-set and reprinted by Oleander under the series name London Bound - owing, unsurprisingly, to their all being set in the nation's capital. The Series Editor, Richard Reynolds, is a CWA Dagger judge and crime specialist at the world-famous Heffers Bookshop in Cambridge. Period-style covers for each, whilst honouring the original, have been designed from scratch by Ayshea Carter, designer at the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge. Release schedule - every six weeks. Beautifully produced in a completely re-set, softback edition. A joy to read and to own. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
