Mystery Mile

About “Mystery Mile”

A red chess piece, an improbable suicide, and a disappearing judge are the clues to a killer whose victims never escape. Judge Lobbett discovers evidence pointing to the criminal mastermind behind the Simister gang terrorizing New York. After four attempts on his life, he turns to Albert Campion, an unorthodox amateur sleuth, during his trip to England. To ensure safety, Campion sends the judge and his family to a secluded house on an island in Suffolk. However, the safety is false—soon after their arrival, the local vicar is killed, signaling the gang. Campion must uncover the mastermind’s identity and protect the judge before it is too late. Blackmail, abduction, and sudden death lead to a tense climax. Despite the elusive clues, Campion’s sharp intelligence and detective instincts prove crucial in the race against time.
