The Englishman of the Rue Cain is a mystery novel written by H. Freeman Wood and published in 1889. The story is set in Paris and follows the investigation of a murder that takes place in the Rue Cain, a quiet street in the city. The victim is a wealthy Englishman named Mr. John Turner, who was found dead in his apartment. The police are baffled by the case, as there seems to be no motive for the murder and no clues as to who the killer might be.Enter Monsieur Lecoq, a detective who is renowned for his ability to solve the most complex cases. Lecoq begins to investigate the murder and soon discovers that there is more to the case than meets the eye. He uncovers a web of deceit and betrayal that leads him to suspect a number of people, including Mr. Turner's wife, his business partner, and his former mistress.As Lecoq delves deeper into the case, he becomes increasingly convinced that the killer is someone close to Mr. Turner. But can he solve the mystery before the killer strikes again? The Englishman of the Rue Cain is a gripping tale of murder, intrigue, and deception that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
