The Case of Miss Dunstable
The serene countryside of Somersetshire is shattered by the mysterious disappearance of Miss Jenny Dunstable from her family's ancestral home, Bishop's Acre. Just twenty years old, Jenny is the epitome of grace and beauty, her presence lighting up the grand birthday dance held in her honour. But as dawn breaks, her room is found empty, her bed unslept in, and her pretty dress from the night missing.
Bishop's Acre is steeped in history and linked with tales of curses and lost treasures, so the villagers speculate wildly, with some attributing Jenny's disappearance to supernatural forces. The family faces intense scrutiny, and the master of the house, Jenny's uncle Sir George Dunstable, enlists help from outside to uncover the truth. But with no sign of forced entry or struggle, and the doors still bolted from within, everyone is stumped by her vanishing.
Joseph Hocking's classic locked-room mystery, first published in 1923, is a challenge for even the most sharp-witted sleuths.
