The quiet understated detective!

A clerk disappears from a large London bank along with a huge sum of money. A lunatic Frenchman, found beaten and bloody in the street, screams when offered a loaf of bread. An adopted daughter is at danger of losing all her inheritance.
Just some of the mysteries to be unravelled by Martin Hewitt.
