The Bravo of London

The Bravo of London, published in 1934, is the only full-length novel featuring Ernest Bramah's blind detective Max Carrados. When a daring criminal known as the Doyen begins orchestrating elaborate crimes across London, Carrados is drawn into a battle of wits that demands more than his extraordinary senses can provide alone. The novel expands the scope of the Carrados stories, allowing Bramah to develop the detective's character and methods at greater length while delivering a plot that builds to a genuinely suspenseful conclusion.
