12 Mysteries for Paul Beck

The Rule of Thumb DetectiveBy M. McDonnell BodkinNarrated by Graham Scott
Length9h 33m

About this audiobook

The first twelve cases for M. McDonnell Bodkin’s insightful but self-deprecating detective Paul Beck, a man who claims no more genius than “a little common sense,” and says of himself that “I just go by the rule of thumb, and muddle and puzzle out my cases as best I can.” Including tales of card-sharping, deception, and theft; of treachery in the British Cabinet, and a plot to undermine the nation’s silver currency; and of ingenious and cold-blooded murder.
