Stowmarket Mystery, or, a Legacy of Hate

by Louis Tracy

In the quaint town of Stowmarket, a shadow of doubt lingers over David Hume-Frazer. Suspected in the enigmatic murder of his cousin, Alan, he seeks redemption and a clear path to marital bliss with Helen Layton. As barrister and sleuth Reginald Brett delves into the perplexing case, he uncovers a chilling pattern: four generations of Alan's ancestors met untimely ends in the very spot where he was slain. Brett races against time to unravel the intricate web of lies and uncover the truth that has haunted the Hume-Frazer lineage for centuries.
