Set in the realm of crime and mystery, the narrative features Dr. Thorndyke, a medico-legal forensic investigator. Originally published in 1923, it represents a significant evolution in Richard Austin Freeman's writing style, moving beyond simple homages to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. This novel introduces the 'inverted detective story' format, where the criminal's identity is revealed at the outset, allowing the plot to focus on the detective's process of unraveling the case.
