A man is found murdered on a train, and Superintendent Ross is on the case. This is a classic "fair play" mystery that will be enjoyed by every reader who wants to pit their wits against the detective. About this story, the London Daily Mail wrote: "For those who ask first of all in a detective story for exact and mathematical accuracy in the construction of the plot, there is no author to equal the distinguished scientist who writes under the name of J. J. Connington. His latest story is the most complex and ingenious he has yet written." The Two Tickets Puzzle was published in 1930. The Coachwhip edition includes an introduction by Curtis Evans.

'As a maker of watertight puzzles, Mr Connington has no superior' Daily Mail
Alfred Walter Stewart, who wrote under the pen name J. J. Connington, was born in Glasgow, the youngest of three sons of Reverend Dr Stewart. He graduated from Glasgow University and pursued an academic career as a chemistry professor, working for the Admiralty during the First World War. Known for his ingenious and carefully worked-out puzzles and in-depth character development, he was admired by a host of his better-known contemporaries, including Dorothy L. Sayers and John Dickson Carr, who both paid tribute to his influence on their work. He married Jessie Lily Courts in 1916 and they had one daughter.
