Deduction in the London Fog: The Clocktower Manifesto
Author: KOXLO 미스터리관
November 1892, inside the pea-soup coal fog of Victorian London. Consulting detective Arthur Pendleton and retired military surgeon Dr. John Henry receive an urgent telegram from Scotland Yard's Inspector Blackwood summoning them to the Westminster townhouse of the Earl of Cromwell. Inside a third-floor study bolted from within, the Earl has died of cyanide poisoning precisely as Big Ben struck midnight, with a brass clockwork gear left on his desk heralding a second judgment at the next midnight. From reddish-brown Thames clay on a boot heel, Trichinopoly cigar ash, and a rewound pocket watch mainspring, Pendleton dissects an impossible locked-room murder.
