J J Connington (Alfred Walter Stewart, 1880-1947) was one of the many detective writers of the Golden Age, and like most of them he held down a day job: he was a scientist. He wrote a great many detective novels and some short stories, and a well-received world catastrophe novel.
He created several series detectives; this is the first Sir Clinton Driffield novel.
Twin brothers are murdered in identical methods in a twin-maze on their estate; the Chief Constable, Sir Clinton Driffield, takes an active hand in the case.
