Mrs. Hableton
Кучер кэба думал, что везет домой подгулявшего джентльмена, но доставил его труп. Скорее всего, вдрызг пьяного мужчину отравил снотворным знакомый, покинув двуколку на полпути. Мельбурн смакует подробности сенсации: здесь давно не слышали о подобном. На скамье подсудимых - молодой представитель высшего света, вместе с убитым претендовавший на руку богатой наследницы. Казалось бы, исход ясен, следователь, представив железные доказательства, потирает руки в ожидании смертного приговора. Но к делу привлечен второй сыщик, привыкший ставить палки в колеса своему коллеге. Его версия стремительно обрастает столь же неоспоримыми уликами...
