This volume of 4 Detectives collects the stories of four very different detectives. Bromley Barnes is a retired Chief from the Treasury Department who is often enlisted for cases of national security. Trent's Last Case shows us the investigation of an industrial magnate by a newspaper journalist through all its twists and turns. The four "Divinations of Kala Persad" focus on an intuitive Indian national who aids a young English detective. Gallagher is an eager street-smart newsboy who helps track down and capture a murderer. This diverse group of investigators offers plenty of thrills and pleasurable reading.
