Book Synopsis Murder Gone Mad by : Philip MacDonald
Download or read book Murder Gone Mad written by Philip MacDonald and published by Collins. This book was released on 2016-12 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first Golden Age detective novel to feature a serial killer with no rational motive - and surely impossible for Scotland Yard to solve? A long knife with a brilliant but perverted brain directing it is terrorising Holmdale - innocent people are being done to death under the very eyes of the law. After every murder a business-like letter arrives announcing that another 'removal has been carried out', and Inspector Pike of Scotland Yard has nothing to go on but the evidence of the bodies themselves and the butcher's own bravado. With clear thinking impossible in the face of such a breathless killing spree, the police make painfully slow progress: but how do you find a maniac who has no rational motive?Philip MacDonald had shown himself in The Noose and The Rasp to be a master of the detective novel. In Murder Gone Mad he raised the stakes with the first Golden Age crime novel to feature a motiveless serial killer prompted only by blood lust - inspired by the real-life case in 1929 of the D�sseldorf Monster - and this time without the familiar Anthony Gethryn on hand to reassure the reader.This Detective Story Club classic is introduced by L. C. Tyler, Chair of the Crime Writers Association and author of the award-winning 'Elsie and Ethelred' crime novels and the John Grey historical mysteries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The latest in a new series of classic detective stories from the vaults of HarperCollins is a reissue of one of literature s most audacious and thought-provoking novels of murder and intrigue, in hardback with its 1929 cover design and a brand new introduction. London lawyer Gabriel John Utterson is persuaded to investigate the sinister activities of the dastardly Mr Edward Hyde. He becomes convinced that Hyde is blackmailing his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll, and that a master criminal is at work. To his horror, Utterson discovers that the doctor s own researches into the duality of human nature have unleashed a murderous sociopath and set in motion a deadly chain of events that threatens to overwhelm him. Published in January 1886, Robert Louis Stevenson s crime fantasy was an immediate success, inspiring more than 100 stage and film adaptations and becoming one of the best-known stories ever written. It was reissued in the Detective Story Club in 1929 for being without equal in the realm of detective fiction . This Detective Story Club classic is introduced by supernatural and detective fiction researcher Richard Dalby. It includes Stevenson s macabre tales Markheim and The Body Snatcher, plus two of the earliest published Jekyll and Hyde parodies the detective story Dr Jekyl by Robert McLaughlin (1931) and a bizarre Untold Sequel by Francis Little (1890). The Detective Story Club, launched by Collins in 1929, was a clearing house for the best and most ingenious crime stories of the age, chosen by a select committee of experts. Now, almost 90 years later, these books are the classics of the Golden Age, republished at last with the same popular cover designs that appealed to their original readers."
