The Chestermarke Instinct

"A crackerjack mystery tale; the story of Linford Pratt, who earnestly desired to get on in life, by hook or by crookwith no objection whatever to crookedness, so long as it could be performed in safety and secrecy."Knickerbocker Press.

But Sunday's break was unsettling: there was always an effort in starting afresh on Monday. The striking of St. Alkmund's clock at eight on Monday morning invariably found him sitting down to his breakfast in his rooms, overlooking the quaint old Market-Place, once more faced by the fact that a week of dull, uninteresting work lay before him. He would go to the bank at nine, and at the bank he would remain, more or less, until five. He would do that again on Tuesday, and on Wednesday, and on Thursday and on Friday, and on Saturday. One afternoon, strolling in the adjacent country, he had seen a horse walking round and round and round in a small paddock, turning a crank which worked some machine or other in an adjoining shed: that horse had somehow suggested himself to himself.[Pg 10] ......Buy Now (To Read More)
