The Lost Special is a mystery novella written by Arthur Conan Doyle. The story begins with the mysterious disappearance of a train, known as the Lost Special, which was carrying important government documents. The train disappears without a trace, leaving no clues behind. Inspector Collins of Scotland Yard is assigned to investigate the case, but he is unable to uncover any leads. Months later, a man named Hugh Boone, who had been a passenger on the Lost Special, arrives at Scotland Yard claiming to have important information about the disappearance. Boone tells Collins that he had overheard a conversation between two men on the train, who had plotted to steal the government documents. Boone leads Collins to the location where he had seen the men, but they are nowhere to be found. As the investigation continues, Collins uncovers a web of deceit and betrayal that leads him to the true mastermind behind the disappearance of the Lost Special. With the help of Boone and his own detective skills, Collins is able to solve the case and bring the criminals to justice. The Lost Special is a classic mystery story that showcases Conan Doyle's talents as a master storyteller. The novella is filled with suspense, intrigue, and unexpected twists and turns that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.All argument failed to overcome his ungracious objections, and finally the plan had to be abandoned. Mr. Horace Moore left the station in great distress, after learning that his only course was to take the ordinary slow train which leaves Liverpool at six o'clock. At four thirty-one exactly by the station clock the special train, containing the crippled Monsieur Caratal and his gigantic companion, steamed out of the Liverpool station. The line was at that time clear, and there should have been no stoppage before Manchester.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
