520    This is a whodunit that neatly fits into the history of 
       detective fiction. It features artist Philip Trent as he 
       unexpectedly becomes an amateur detective. Some of his 
       carefully collected information often proved erroneous. It
       begins when a wealthy American plutocrat, Bigsbee 
       Manderson, uses his finances in an attempt to establish 
       rules controlling society. When Manderson is found 
       murdered on the grounds of his country house in England, 
       Trent is hired as a reporter by a press association to 
       investigate and file reports. The investigating officer 
       from Scotland Yard, Inspector Murch, is an old 
       acquaintance of Trent, and this gives the "new" detective 
       contacts resulting in clues of both significant and 
       spurious nature.  The unusual aspect of this story, first 
       published in 1913, is that although Trent winds up with 
       the correct solution, he was so worn down he declared it 
       would be his last case. It was twenty-three years later 
       before author Bentley wrote another Trent story and began 
       it with a recap of what happened in the "last case." Along
       the way, Trent becomes romantically interested in the 
       character referred to in this book's subtitle as "the Lady
       in Black." Was she the widow of the murdered man? It's 
       probably better for us to let you hear the whole story, 
       beginning now.
