In Unravelled Knots, Baroness Orczy returns to the enigmatic figure of the Old Man in the Corner — the shabby, eccentric sleuth who solves baffling mysteries without ever leaving his teashop chair. With only his sharp intellect and a piece of string he knots absentmindedly, he untangles cases that have stumped the police and confounded the courts. From stolen jewels to sinister murders, each tale reveals hidden motives and overlooked clues, culminating in clever, unexpected solutions. This final collection is both a celebration of Orczy's pioneering detective and a masterclass in logical reasoning, cementing the Old Man's place alongside Sherlock Holmes as one of the earliest icons of mystery fiction.
