Dorrington Deed-Box

by Arthur Morrison

About this book

Six stories of cases involving the dishonest Horace Dorrington, a cheerfully unrepentant detective who is willing to stoop to theft, blackmail, fraud or cold-blooded murder to make a shilling. The first story describes how Dorrington is forced to go on the run after unsuccessfully trying to kill one of his own clients. The stories are narrated by the person he tried to kill, from records found in Dorrington’s office after his hurried escape. - Summary by TriciaG
