It contains six stories featuring cases of the unscrupulous London-based private detective Horace Dorrington, told from the viewpoint of one his clients and potential victims James Rigby.It was part of a general boom of detective stories in the wake of Arthur Conan Doyle's creation of Sherlock Holmes.
