The Duchess of Wiltshire's Diamonds

The Duchess of Wiltshire's Diamonds by Guy Boothby is about the mystifying cases of great English detective Klimo. Excerpt: «TO the reflective mind the rapidity with which the inhabitants of the world's greatest city seize upon a new name or idea and familiarise themselves with it, can scarcely prove otherwise than astonishing. As an illustration of my meaning let me take the case of Klimo—the now famous private detective, who has won for himself the right to be considered as great as Lecocq, or even the late lamented Sherlock Holmes.»
