À propos de l'auteur
J. S. Fletcher, an accomplished British journalist and author, left an indelible mark on the literary world through his prolific contributions to the detective fiction genre. Born in 1863 in Halifax, West Yorkshire, Joseph Smith Fletcher began his career as a poet and historian but eventually found his niche in writing mysteries. With a career spanning several decades, Fletcher authored more than 100 books, but one of his most celebrated works is 'The Middle Temple Murder' (1919), a classic of detective fiction admired for its intricate plotting and keen attention to legal detail, reflective of its time and setting. Fletcher's literary style is characterized by meticulous narrative construction and a penchant for weaving complex, yet coherent, storylines that frequently revolve around legal intricacies and British countryside settings. His work not only entertained readers but also influenced the development of crime fiction in the early twentieth century. Notably, Fletcher's writings often eschewed the presence of a singular detective hero, favoring instead the collective efforts of journalists or laypersons in solving crimes, a distinction that sets his works apart from those of his contemporaries. Fletcher passed away in 1935, leaving behind a legacy that continues to resonate with aficionados of classic detective stories.
