Mr. Fairlie's Final Journey Jonas Fairlie set out from Frome, Somerset for London - but he never reached there. When his body was found not far out of Frome, Solar Pons's address was discovered concealed in the lining of his hat. What was the problem he intended to lay before Pons? And who had killed him? These were the related puzzles laid before Solar Pons within hours of the discovery that Fairlie had been murdered.This first novel featuring the Sherlock Holmes of Praed Street unfolds a complex and intricate mystery that not only taxes Pons's ingenuity but puts his life in jeopardy at its climax. Though the story begins in London, its scenes range from Frome. Cheltenham, and the coast of Wales.No one had any evident motive to kill Jonas Fairlie, but someone did - a clever canny killer who had slain before and meant to slay again unless Solar Pons could prevent it, a killer whose motive was obscure but compelling, and one whose killings were planned with infinite care and carried out with singular deliberation. Pons is pitted against a clever and ruthless antagonist in his first novel-length adventure.- From the original 1968 Mycroft & Moran edition dust jacket of Mr. Fairlie's Final JourneyTerror Over LondonIn addition to Mr. Fairlie's Final Journey, this volume includes the rare first Pons novel, Terror Over London, originally written when Derleth was a young man in the 1930's, but lost in his papers until its rediscovery decades later. In the past, it has been extremely difficult and expensive to obtain, but now, thanks to the Derleth heirs and the August Derleth Estate, who still retain full ownership of both Pons and Derleth's stories, it's available in this new edition for the general public for the first time!
