Book Overview

This volume of 2 Detectives brings together two female detectives by the same author. Grant Allen's protagonists, Miss Cayley and Hilda Wade are determined, smart, and resourceful. They join the ranks of the early independent female adventurers who paved the way for the modern female detective. Miss Cayley's intrepid spirit finds numerous adventures as she makes something of herself, even when she finds she must fight against a criminal deceit that would rob the man she loves of his fortune and freedom. Hilda Wade is unswerving in her aim to unmask her father's cold-blooded killer, and bring him to justice, even if he is one of the most intelligent, and respected, of men.

About Grant Allen

Grant Allen was born on February 24, 1848 near Kingston, Ontario, in Canada. Though largely forgotten today, during his lifetime he was a prolific and popular writer who published widely in diverse areas, which were as various as his own intellectual pursuits that ranged from the sciences to literature. His best stories, which featured the notorious conartist and thief, Colonel Clay, first appeared in the Strand Magazine and later were collected in the book, An African Millionaire: Episodes in the Life of the Illustrious Colonel Clay (1897), commonly regarded by many critics as the first fictional work to feature a criminal protagonist.
