How is this book unique?Font adjustments & biography includedUnabridged (100% Original content)IllustratedAbout The Singing Bone by R. Austin Freeman In the topsy turvy world of The Singing Bone, R. Austin Freeman presents us with a solution. The reader is asked to deduce how different mysteries were solved. R. Austin Freeman introduces distinct tales of intrigue, romance, mutiny and murder. The ingenuity of these detective stories lies in their fresh and original approach in what amounts to a tantalising read. A German folk story tells of a peasant who fashioned a flute from the bone of a murdered man but when he tried to play it, it burst into a song identifying the murderer. In this collection of seven cases, that eminent lecturer on medical jurisprudence, Dr. John Thorndyke, makes bones, and blood, fingerprints, and tobacco sing out to proclaim the guilt or innocence of those involved. Using techniques as rigorous as they are scientific, Dr. Thorndyke, the original forensic detective, proves the scourge of the criminals of Edwardian England in The Singing Bone by R. Austin Freeman.
