About this book

Murder at Bratton Grange is a classic example of the ingenious plotting and scientific precision that defined John Rhode's contribution to the Golden Age of detective fiction. Featuring his celebrated sleuth Dr. Lancelot Priestley, this novel delivers a meticulously crafted murder mystery set against the backdrop of an English country estate steeped in secrets and shadows. When a guest is found dead under suspicious circumstances at Bratton Grange, a quiet and respectable country house, local authorities are quick to suspect accident—or suicide. But when evidence begins to contradict appearances, Dr. Priestley is called in to apply his signature logic and methodical reasoning. What follows is an absorbing investigation involving a tangled web of motives, opportunities, and concealed identities. Rhode, the pseudonym of Cecil John Charles Street, was a master of the "humdrum" detective novel—stories grounded in realism, technical detail, and credible procedures. Murder at Bratton Grange is no exception: it combines a traditional whodunit structure with keen psychological insight and a solution that satisfies both emotionally and intellectually. Perfect for fans of Freeman Wills Crofts and R. Austin Freeman, this novel is a must-read for lovers of classic British crime. It's a compelling reminder that murder, even in the most respectable of places, often hides in plain sight—and that truth requires sharp eyes and sharper minds to uncover.
