The Notting Hill Mystery - Charles Warren Adams

\'The Nottinghill Mystery\' is one of the few detective novels not written from the perspective of a detective. One of its main appeals is that it was written through extracts and court case depositions, and not one long narrative; making the reading feel like they are almost one of the jury delivering their final verdict. Set in the 1840s, insurance broker Ralph Henderson must collect evidence against a local professor who is suspected of a number of murders of women over the years. It was first published as an eight-part serial in a magazine but you will struggle not to read it from start to finish in one sitting.
