Sergeant Beef series by Leo Bruce (01-02, 04-08)
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 1.29 MB
Overview: Possibly the most unusual mystery ever written.
Genre: Mystery, Detective Fiction
01 - Case for Three Detectives (1936)
A murder is committed, behind closed doors, in bizarre circumstances. Three amateur detectives take the case: Lord Simon Plimsoll, Monsieur Amer Picon, and Monsignor Smith (in whom discerning readers will note likeness to some familiar literary figures). Each arrives at his own brilliant solution, startling in its originality, ironclad in its logic. Meanwhile Sergean Beef sits contemptuously in the background. "But," says Sergean Beef, "I know who done it!"
02 - Case Without a Corpse (1937)
04 - Case with No Conclusion (1939)
Once again Lionel Townsend, Beef's Dr. Watson, faithfully records the redoubtable Sergeant's escapades. Beef has left the Braxham police and gone into business for himself. Beef gets a client: Stewart Ferrars, who has been arrested for the Sydenham Murder. Beef is hired by Stewart's brother Peter to prove Stewart is innocent of the murder of Dr. Benson, who has been found stabbed in the throat in the library of Peter's gloomy Victorian mansion, The Cypresses. An ornamental dagger with Peter's fingerprints on it has been left on a table near the dead man's armchair.
05 - Case with Ropes and Rings (1940)
The Coroner's Jury found that the boy hanged in the school gymnasium had killed himself, but Sgt. Beef disagrees. He takes a job as a temporary school caretaker, abetted by the reluctant Townsend - Beef's biographer -- whose brother is a master at the school. Beef's methods are not to Townsend's liking, as they entail endless games of darts and beer all around in the local pub. Then there is another remarkably similar murder which occurs elsewhere and Beef bestirs himself to uncover the guilty
06 - Case for Sergeant Beef (1947)
The ex-village policeman joins forces with the police ; there are a number of friendly and lightly-veiled digs at the plots and characters of other famous writers.
07 - Neck and Neck (1951)
Sergeant Beef clears a writer suspected of killing his aunt and solves the murder of an unpopular publisher, two cases which seem unrelated at first.
08 - Cold Blood (1952)
At first there seemed to be no doubt who killed Cosmo Ducrow, the recluse millionaire, with a croquet mallet, but the police are reluctant to arrest the obvious suspect. To force their hand, Sergeant Beef and his tireless chronicler, Townsend are called in to solve the crime. Then Beef's unorthodox methods almost lead to a second murder.
