Cleek of Scotland Yard by Thomas W. Hanshew
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
If you are a Sherlockian fan, then you will enjoy this book by author Thomas W. Hanshew (1857 – 1914). He was an American actor and writer, born in Brooklyn, N. Y.
While I enjoyed the stories, I found it hard to decipher the strong British dialect at time's which my kindle's features failed to aid in my dilemma. In a similar style of the author, Sir Conan Doyles Sherlock Holmes short stories the main character a one Hamilton Cleek is a master of disguise along with a talent for deducing puzzles that will result in the solution of the crimes committed. Cleek makes the transition from cracksafer to Scotland Yards most requested crime detective.
