A classic murder mystery from 1926! Available again for the first time in 100 years!
Lord Torkington has been murdered, shot in his chambers in the upper floors of Godsmark, the tower that has served as his family’s seat for over six hundred years. His family, playing billiards on the lower floors of the tower, can only confirm that at the time of the lord’s death, no-one could possibly have reached Torkington’s rooms unnoticed. This is a mystery that has no easy solution, and the Lord's unsolved murder will have ramifications for the household for years to come.
J.B. Harris-Burland was a successful and prolific novelist of the early twentieth century, responsible for over thirty novels. Although Harris-Burland was best known for his fantasy stories, he wrote a number of mysteries and crime stories. His mystery classic The Tower of Silence was first published via newspaper serialisation in 1926. This edition represents the first time this work has been returned to print in almost a hundred years, making the writing of Harris-Burland available to a modern audience.
