Synopses

Pontifex, Son, and Thorndyke

Jasper Gray’s ordinary routine is disrupted by a chain of curious incidents, while Dr. Thorndyke is asked to advise on an unusual suicide that appears unconnected. As the two strands draw together, the consequences reshape Jasper’s life.

When Rogues Fall Out

A clash between thieves and a policeman ends in murder, prompting an investigation that draws in Thorndyke, Jervis and Polton alongside the official authorities. Their enquiries also lead them towards a house with an unsettling mystery at its centre.

Dr. Thorndyke Intervenes

A case from the past resurfaces when a human head is left at a railway station, setting off a fresh investigation. The trail takes in an ancient crypt and old British mines, with the search ultimately tied to a restored inheritance.
