The Lazy Detective
by George Dilnot
“He’s London’s least motivated detective—and an untouchable criminal’s worst nightmare.”
Horace Caspar is more interested in comfort than crime-fighting, until a daring jewelry theft drags him onto the fog-shrouded streets of London. To catch a mastermind deemed beyond the reach of the law, the city’s most indolent investigator must finally prove that laziness is no match for a brilliant mind.
