Sobre este artículo
MP3 Audio CD. Fergus Hume?s mystery classics have caused quite a stir at the end of the 19th century, when the genre became remarkably popular due to the contribution of authors such as Hume, Arthur Conan Doyle or Wilkie Collins. The ?Golden Age of Detective Fiction,? as it was called, the period between 1860 and the early 1900s was a ripe launching pad for Hume?s unconventional, original, and oftentimes quite ingenious literary ideas.The Silent House trilogy comprises three of Hume?s best classics: The Silent House, The Mystery of a Hansom Cab, and The Crowned Skull. Fergus Hume?s success, mainly spanning through the period he spent in Australia, also led to notable books such as The Green Mummy, A Woman?s Burden, or The Secret Passage.The Silent House is the main novel of the set, presenting the reader with the rather dull life of a barrister in London. Things quickly began to escalate, as the man became involved in an unexplainable mystery involving the murder of a man and a sinister house that seemed to be haunted.Heavily populated with strange, unexpected characters and plot twists, The Silent House will likely surprise and shock even readers who are used to reading about strange mysteries and the unexplained. The book also proves to be an overall fun and exciting mystery that will definitely not be easy to solve.The second mystery is one that outsold even some of Arthur Conan Doyle?s Sherlock Holmes books at the time. The Mystery of a Hansom Cab is a thriller story introducing the mystery of a body discovered under unusual circumstances inside a hansom cab.The Crowned Skull is another less conventional mystery involving Sir Hannibal Trevick, a businessman who, together with his partner, was involved in a nefarious affair that later leads them ? however unwillingly ? to the occult. You will be pleasantly influenced by these remarkable literary works bearing the signature of Fergus Hume.
