Synopsis

Volume IV contains the fourth, fifth and sixth Thorndyke novels, originally published in 1914, 1922 and 1923, and set across different stages of the doctor’s career. Each story is presented as a showcase for Thorndyke’s investigative skill, with cases that place both his friends and his own safety under threat.

In A Silent Witness, a young doctor’s discovery of a body that quickly disappears draws him into a dangerous plot. Helen Vardon’s Confession is told in Helen Vardon’s own words, as her future is put at risk and she faces a path towards destruction unless Thorndyke can intervene. The Cat’s Eye begins with an inheritance linked to the Jacobite Rising of 1745, triggering events that escalate into peril.
