The Case of Miss Elliott


Gelesen von J. M. Smallheer

(4.4 stars; 81 reviews)

A sequel to the stories published in The Old Man in the Corner, this second book in the series includes twelve new mysterious cases that The Old Man in the Corner unravels over his milk and cheesecake at the ABC Tea Shop, all the while tying and untying knots in a bit of string. His audience is Polly Burton, a young journalist, who has to begrudging admit that the Old Man's solutions are indeed plausible explanations to these cases which have baffled both the police and coroner. Orzy's Old Man is an early 20th century example of the armchair detective. Summary by J. M. Smallheer (6 hr 24 min)

Very intriguing mysteries! The only downside to these stories is that the criminals are not brought to justice. J. M. Smallheer is a great reader!

Miss Elliott Is Dismissed


(5 stars)

BO continues her onslaught of great mysteries. Detective's of many year's experience are baffled & have no answers. An elderly man does seem to always be 2 steps ahead of everyone. Yet the stories continue to have interest, whilst winding around all those involved. Entertainment at it's finest!

Read elsewhere before


(3.5 stars)

All these stories are ones that I have read before and not in this book. They were in other books or alone, not that they aren’t good but I know if I had paid for them, I would be a little upset.


(5 stars)

Well read! Tolerably vague and uncertain! Intervene for pretended brother Albert! Somewhat more than what I have already told the reader.

very engaging & intriguing
