The Sturgis Wager: A Detective Story is a novel written by Edgar Morette and published in 1899. The story is set in England and follows the investigation of a murder mystery by detective John Sturgis. The wealthy and eccentric Sir Horace Fewbanks has been found dead in his country estate, and Sturgis is called in to solve the case. As he delves deeper into the investigation, Sturgis uncovers a web of lies, secrets, and betrayals that lead him to suspect almost everyone involved in the case. The novel features a cast of memorable characters, including the victim's family, servants, and acquaintances, each with their own motives and alibis. As the case progresses, Sturgis must navigate through a maze of clues and red herrings to uncover the truth behind the murder. The Sturgis Wager is a classic detective story that combines intricate plotting, suspenseful twists, and vivid characters to create a compelling mystery that will keep readers guessing 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.
