The Man In The Brown Suit
Author: Christian Clarissa Cordelia "Kitty" Fisher
(Revised: 22 June 2008)
In the village of Lone Oak, Sussex, a corpse is discovered in an arm chair, posed like a man wearing a waiter's brown uniform. His head and both hands have been shaved and his fingernails removed. A vizier is found stabbed to death, at the bottom of the stairs. And Roderick Alleyn is murdered: shot through the heart by a dart tipped off with a motiveless pomegranate seed.
There are many suspects, but the real criminal remains a mystery. Asile Zhou, Chinese fortune teller found by three dead men before their doom arrives, thinks she has a touch of the thing: a sixth sense guiding her to a secret door leading towards the murderer but becomes no closer.
After rummaging through Alleyn's belongings, it becomes clear that this is the second and final case that Kit will have to solve before she can decide whether to turn her life of crime solving into her profession, or leave it forever.
As she examines Alleyn's military service pin badge, she realizes what she must do, before the mystery of whatever killed him plunges them all into another life-threatening event. Cigar box investigation aside, they must search for the killer before they become the next victim. There is no time to go the usual rule book route, and there are no normal clues to be found.
Kit draws on her previous encounters with such crime, related to her journeys around the globe as a member of the Society as an International Crime Solver. From Singapore, through Kuala Lumpur and on to London, she seeks ties between various suspects from inside and outside of Britain and uncovers a twisted web of conniving manipulation erasing a nasty cast off murder.
