Summary

Charismatic socialite Simon Carne adopts the persona of "Klimo" to solve crimes. Does professional jealousy explain antagonism to the celebrated private detective? Or is it something more? And even though Klimo solves case after case for his clients, why are none of the perpetrators ever caught?

Guy Newell Boothby (1867-1905) was an Australian novelist and writer. In 1894, his first novel, In Strange Company, was published in London and was quickly successful. He wrote over 50 books over the course of a decade, including Dr. Nikola's Experiment (1899), A Bid for Fortune or Dr. Nikola's Vendetta (1895), The Duchess of Wiltshire's Diamonds (1897), Pharos the Egyptian (1899), A Sailor's Bride (1899), My Strangest Case (1901), and Connie Burt (1903).

Angus Jones III is a native of Lower Kingswood, England. He studied drama and literature, before embarking on a two-decade long career in theatre work. This is his first audiobook narration.
