Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. Best "Thinking Machine" Detective Stories: The Problem of Cell 13 & 11 Other Stories by Jacques Futrelle is a classic collection of early 20th-century detective fiction featuring one of literature s most brilliant and unique sleuths Professor Augustus S. F. X. Van Dusen, known as The Thinking Ma…chine. Van Dusen is a genius logician who believes that any problem can be solved purely through the power of reason. In these twelve tightly plotted stories, including the famous The Problem of Cell 13, Van Dusen uses intellect, deduction, and scientific principles to unravel baffling mysteries from seemingly impossible escapes to perfect crimes with no apparent solution. Originally published in magazines like The Saturday Evening Post, these stories combine clever puzzles with crisp, engaging prose. Futrelle s creation is a precursor to characters like Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot, and this collection remains a must-read for fans of classic detective tales and locked-room mysteries.
