How Briggs Died

De: Douglas Harding

Narrado por: Matt Addis

Two friends, one a specialist in archaeology, the other an artist, were spending a day or two in the interesting old town of Bingly. One in investigation of the old church, the other in sketching it. A telegram announcing the death of James Briggs, the artist’s brother, put an end to the holiday, sending Joshua Briggs post-haste to his sister-in-law’s house.

But was it accidental death? Or suicide? Or was there not some foul play somewhere?

Joshua sent for his friend. Ray started an investigation of a different kind from unearthing the secrets of old buildings. Patiently, he collected information and evidence, collated and arranged it until he had made out a case and “proved” each possible suspect guilty. Yet, when he finally revealed the criminal’s scheme, he could not but admire its cleverness.
