The Agony Column by Earl Derr Biggers is a classic mystery novel set in London in the early 1900s. The story follows the adventures of a young American journalist named Casey Lee, who is sent to London to cover the coronation of King Edward VII. While there, Lee becomes embroiled in a complex mystery involving a series of anonymous letters, known as agony columns, that are being sent to a wealthy and influential woman named Mrs. Harriet Steele.The letters contain cryptic messages that suggest a sinister plot is afoot, and Lee becomes determined to unravel the mystery and uncover the identity of the person behind the letters. Along the way, he meets a cast of colorful characters, including a beautiful and enigmatic woman named Z�����lie de Lannoy, who may hold the key to solving the mystery.As Lee delves deeper into the case, he uncovers a web of deceit and intrigue that leads him on a thrilling journey through the streets of London and into the heart of the city's criminal underworld. With its clever plot twists, engaging characters, and vivid descriptions of turn-of-the-century London, The Agony Column is a must-read for fans of classic mystery fiction.In the days of Sherlock Holmes it was in the Times that it flourished, and many a criminal was tracked to earth after he had inserted some alluring mysterious message in it. Later the Telegraph gave it room; but, with the advent of halfpenny journalism, the simple souls moved en masse to the Mail.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
