The Clue of the Twisted Candle

"The Clue of the Twisted Candle" is a novel by Edgar Wallace: The 4. 15 from Victoria to Lewes had been held up at Three Bridges in consequence of a derailment and, though John Lexman was fortunate enough to catch a belated connection to Beston Tracey, the wagonette which was the sole communication between the village and the outside world had gone.
