The Ashiel Mystery is a novel written by Mrs. Charles Bryce. The story takes place in Scotland and follows the investigation of a murder that occurs in the small village of Ashiel. The victim is a wealthy landowner named Sir John Bury, who is found dead in his home with a gunshot wound to the head. The main suspect is his nephew, who stands to inherit his fortune, but the investigation reveals that there are many others who had motives to kill Sir John. The story is narrated by a young woman named Elsie Duff, who becomes involved in the investigation after her friend, the local doctor, asks for her help. As the investigation unfolds, Elsie finds herself drawn into the dark secrets and scandals of the village and must navigate the dangers of a killer on the loose. The Ashiel Mystery is a classic whodunit that will keep readers guessing until the very end.No, sir. The hall is quite away from the tower, and so is the housekeeper's room; and the walls are very thick. We were just finishing supper, which was very late that night on account of the gentlemen coming in late from stalking, and one thing and another. I'm rather surprised none of us heard it, sir.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
