[El séptimo círculo 53] • Una Bala Para El Señor Thorold

A mystery story that is different.

This is not only a mystery story with an intricate plot, but also a sketch done with affection and humour of a typical manifestation of the Public School system. We make the acquaintance of a gallery of masters and their wives and watch with interest behaviour whilst that world is under a cloud of suspicion. The strange adventures of a missing Officer Training Corps rifle are gradually traced and the school becomes convinced that the murderer is in their midst. With Scotland Yard and special correspondents prowling around, you will yourself trace the probably murderer several times until the very unexpected end.
