Dead Stop
> Captain Desmond Merrion of the Royal Navy goes to the little village of Brightwood for a secret interview with Wilfred Louth, a scientist who has made a discovery which may be of great importance in the successful prosecution of WWII. Mr. Louth demonstrates the invention to Merrion, who promises to arrange for a more elaborate demonstration before Admiralty experts. Soon after, Louth is killed by a mysterious explosion in his laboratory. Merrion joins with Inspector Arnold in investigating the explosion, which has certain odd factors. In *Dead Stop* Miles Burton has given us one of his finest stories, a mystery that certainly succeeds in mystifying.
