Sexton Blake wins

de Jack Adrian

>**Crime classics from the Golden Age featuring the Baker Street sleuth** >Voodoo menace in the West Indies, missing persons in London and a sudden death to the tune of Dvořák's 'Humoresque' are just some of the mysteries that Sexton Blake solves with cool aplomb. Like his close neighbour, Sherlock Holmes, Blake has proved to be one of the most popular figures of detective fiction, and in this stylish collection of stories written by a variety of authors he faces a rogue's gallery of villains, including the opium-smoking Monsieur Zenith the Albino and the infamous crooked surgeon, Dr Huxton Rymer.
