Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Schoolmaster Jack Kent is taking his holiday with rod and reel in a small village along the Welsh border, when he stumbles across the body of an elderly man sitting in a car in the middle of the road early one morning. So begins Kent's extraordinary adventure as he joins the eccentric, but b…rilliant, Horton Forbes in the investigation of the man's death and the curious behavior of a secretive group with malign intent. Thrown into the action, Kent gathers clues while never quite knowing who he can trust (all while attempting to aid the lovely Miss Mary Cheney as much as he can).The Seven Black Chessmen is an atmospheric Holmesian pastiche, with action, deductions, and a suitably malevolent adversary. Gerald William Phillips (1884-1956), writing as John Huntingdon, published his sole mystery in 1928. Phillips was an educator and a Shakespearean scholar. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Seven Black Chessmen' is a compelling mystery novel that plunges readers into a world of intrigue and calculated suspense. The narrative centers on a series of baffling occurrences where small, black chess pieces are left as ominous symbols, suggesting a hidden logic behind a string of… crimes. As the plot unfolds, the story transforms into a sophisticated game of cat and mouse, where the characters must decipher the meaning behind these tokens before the unknown mastermind makes their final move.Written during a period of high popularity for the puzzle-oriented detective story, this work exemplifies the atmospheric and intellectual qualities of early 20th-century crime fiction. John Huntingdon crafts a narrative rich with tension, focusing on the psychological depth of his characters and the intricate construction of the central mystery. The use of the chess motif adds a layer of symbolic complexity, challenging the reader to engage in a battle of wits alongside the protagonists.Valued for its classic plotting and evocative setting, 'The Seven Black Chessmen' remains a notable example of the traditional mystery genre. It offers a rewarding experience for fans of vintage detective stories, blending logical deduction with a sense of mounting danger that keeps the reader guessing until the final revelation.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible. Therefore, you may see the original copyright references, library stamps (as most of these works have been housed in our most important libraries around the world), and other notations in the work.This work is in the public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations. Within the United States, you may freely copy and distribute this work, as no entity (individual or corporate) has a copyright on the body of the work.As a reproduction of a historical artifact, this work may contain missing or blurred pages, poor pictures, errant marks, etc. Scholars believe, and we concur, that this work is important enough to be preserved, reproduced, and made generally available to the public.
