The Deaves Affair is a mystery novel written by Hulbert Footner and originally published in 1922. Set in New York City during the early 20th century, the story follows private detective Amos Lee Mappin as he investigates the disappearance of millionaire banker John Deaves. Mappin is hired by Deaves' daughter, who suspects foul play after her father suddenly vanishes without a trace. As Mappin delves deeper into the case, he uncovers a web of deceit and betrayal involving Deaves' business associates, family members, and even his own wife. With the help of his assistant, a young woman named Minnie, Mappin navigates the dangerous underworld of New York's elite to solve the mystery and bring Deaves' kidnappers to justice. The Deaves Affair is a classic work of detective fiction that offers a glimpse into the social and cultural milieu of early 20th century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
