When a murder is discovered, the young drifter becomes entangled in a deadly conspiracy, leading to political intrigue. Suspecting a connection to the unexpected arrival of Cade, Scotland Yard’s Superintendent Battle investigates the mysterious death along with a sinister plot involving a stolen diamond, blackmail, and a violent revolutionary society.

The Secret of Chimneys is the first title in The Superintendent Battle Series. The series features Superintendent Battle, a resourceful and clever police detective who solves mysteries using a combination of shrewd observation and an intentionally projected dull mentality, quite often pretending to be more thoughtless than he actually is.
