When Rogues Fall Out

"When Rogues Fall Out" is a detective novel by the master of the genre R. Austin Freeman. The book contains three interconnected stories. The first tells of a respectable collector of antiques that falls victim to temptation. In the second, a police inspector is found dead in suspicious circumstances, and his death is investigated with the help of the early use of fingerprint evidence. The third is a classic locked-room mystery where someone has been making use of a sealed room. All three are resolved together in the last few pages.
