Detective Philo Gubb: Collected Mysteries

Musaicum Books presents to you this unique and meticulously edited adventure collection: Philo Gubb is a small-town paperhanger who admires Sherlock Holmes and learns a deductive technique by correspondence course. Gubb differs from many mainstream fictional detectives in that he is not brilliant, nor egocentric, but he is persistent, good-natured, and occasionally displays common sense. Also in contrast, his work may be characterized by elaborate disguises that deceive nobody, theories that are overhauled at every clue, and the often unintentional solving of mysteries.Table of Contents:The Hard-Boiled EggThe PetThe Eagle's ClawsThe OublietteThe Un-BurglarsThe Two-Cent StampThe ChickenThe Dragon's EyeThe Progressive MurderThe Missing Mr. MasterWaffles and MustardThe Anonymous WiggleThe Half of a ThousandDietz's 7462 Bessie JohnHenryBuried BonesPhilo Gubb's Greatest Case
