The story is set in a small town in England and follows the investigation of the disappearance of Murray Davenport, a wealthy businessman. The protagonist of the story is a young detective named Jack Tarling, who is hired by Davenport's wife to find her missing husband.As Tarling delves deeper into the case, he uncovers a web of deceit and betrayal that leads him to suspect everyone, including Davenport's own family members. The investigation takes Tarling to Paris and back to England, where he finally uncovers the truth behind Davenport's disappearance.The novel is filled with twists and turns, and the author keeps the readers guessing until the very end. The characters are well-developed, and the plot is intricately woven, making it a satisfying read for fans of mystery novels. The Mystery of Murray Davenport is a classic whodunit that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page.Stephens' only modern detective yarn, one of the earliest such tales to incorporate the theme of plastic surgery to change identities. There was some years later a dramatization of this work written by Vincent Starrett, who wrote the play version at the request of the author's widow.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
