Average Jones is a mystery novel written by Samuel Hopkins Adams. The story follows the adventures of a private detective named Average Jones, who is known for his unconventional methods of solving cases. Jones is hired by a wealthy businessman to investigate the disappearance of his daughter, who has vanished without a trace. As Jones delves deeper into the case, he uncovers a web of deceit and corruption that threatens to destroy the lives of everyone involved. Along the way, Jones encounters a cast of colorful characters, including a beautiful young woman who becomes his ally, a ruthless gangster who will stop at nothing to protect his interests, and a group of eccentric artists who may hold the key to solving the mystery. As the investigation unfolds, Jones must use all of his wit and ingenuity to stay one step ahead of his enemies and bring the missing girl home safely. With its fast-paced plot, engaging characters, and clever twists and turns, Average Jones is a classic detective story that will keep readers guessing until the very end.There's been no quarrel. We're as much engaged now as ever, in spite of the return of the ring. It's only her infern--her deep-rooted superstition that's caused this trouble. One can't blame her; her father and mother were both killed in an accident after some sort of 'ghostly warning.' The first thing I gave her, after our engagement, was a necklace of these stones--he tapped his scarf pin--that I'd selected, one by one, myself. They're beautiful, as you see, but they're not particularly valuable; only semiprecious.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
