That Mainwaring Affair
A novel with a most intricate and carefully unraveled plot. A naturally probable and excellently developed story and the reader will follow the fortunes of each character with unabating interest -- the interest is keen at the close of the first chapter and increases to the end.That Mainwaring Affair is more or less a classic courtroom drama, in which a death occurs among a wealthy class of people and the denouement is saved for the trial. There's something rather refreshing about this; read enough Agatha Christie novels and you get used to the murderer always being disclosed around tea time, just as the deacon is passing around a plate of biscuits. TMA, by contrast, is a very public mystery--the narrator repeatedly updates the reader about the general populace's interest in the case, the mystery is solved by both amateur and professional detectives, and the final solution is presented in a court of law, where the guilty party is revealed to all, rather than a select few.
That Mainwaring Affair
A glance at the four occupants of one of these rooms, who had disposed themselves in various attitudes according to their individual inclinations, revealed the fact that three out of the four were Englishmen, while the fourth might have been denominated as a typical American from the professional class. Of rather slender form, with a face of rare sensitiveness and delicacy, and restless, penetrating eyes, his every movement indicated energy and alertness. On the present occasion he had little to say, but was engaged in listening attentively to the conversation of the others.
