MYSTERY OF MR. JESSOP

Who killed Mr. Jessop? Who stole the Fellows necklace? Who attacked Hilda May? The web of suspicion encompasses a dealer in &lsquo,hot goods&rsquo,, respected jewellers, a millionaire, an ex-pugilist, a playboy, members of the nobility, a hard-boiled moll and a girl who could not forget her past. All the clues are there, as the indefatigible Bobby Owen works his way through a real peasouper of a London mystery and pierces the fog &ndash, displaying not only magnificent analytical powers but and admirable courage in the face of danger. Mystery of Mr. Jessop is the eighth of E.R. Punshon&rsquo,s acclaimed Bobby Owen mysteries, first published in 1937 and part of a series which eventually spanned thirty-five novels. &ldquo,What is distinction? The few who achieve it step &ndash, plot or no plot &ndash, unquestioned into the first rank&hellip, in the works of Mr. E.R. Punshon we salute it every time.&rdquo, Dorothy L. Sayers_,
