description: PUZZLES WITHIN PUZZLES The Locked Room, Acrostic, Train Schedule World of Rupert Penny. Between 1937 and 1941 British writer Ernest Basil Charles Thornett wrote several puzzle-oriented mysteries that until now have only been available in the UK. Using the pseudonym Rupert Penny and the first person friend of Police Inspector, Tony Purdon, the author takes you to the stodgiest of English manors where murder dwells, if not reigns. Inspector Beale must use all of his puzzle-solving skills, including acrostics and elaborate timelines, to track down the murderer in classic not-so-cosy style. 1938's Policeman's Evidence takes Tony Purdon and Inspector Beale to a country manor where a fortune in jewels has been hidden for a century. It's a treasure hunt for the ages.
