The Clue by Carolyn Wells

3.0

When heiress Madeleine Van Norman is found dead, suicide is the first thought. But clues start being noticed. Robert Fessenden, best man, lawyer and amateur detective decides to ask questions until finally near the end of the story Fleming Stone, the great detective is employed to find the guilty party.
The story was written in 1909 and needs to be read in that context, but still an interesting read.
