The Hog's Back Mystery (2015) - Plot & Excerpts

What was to be his next move? Rack his brains as he might, he couldn’t think of any line which he had not already explored.
    Worried beyond measure, he sat smoking in his room, where he had lit the gas fire, gazing vacantly into space and pondering on the eternal problem of what was truth.
    Idly he wondered which of the two phases of his work—one or other of which he was usually up against—was the more exasperating: to have to make endless wearying repetitions of some small enquiry with consistently futile results, or not to see the way ahead at all. “Ough!” he groaned in disgust. “Who would be a detective?”
    Carefully he began to go over for the thousandth time the facts of the case. Was there nothing that he had missed? No line of research still unexplored? No stone—he smiled whimsically to himself at the pompous cliché—still unturned?
    Mechanically he got out his notebook and began more seriously and systematically than ever to review the entire circumstances.
