With great brilliance sometimes comes great eccentricity. Meet Pertinax Crisp, one of the most acclaimed detectives in all of Vuldokos, and perhaps in all of Old Tarthalla. Along with his best friend and partner, Captain Thane Ryder, Pertinax Crisp solves crimes that the police department has deemed unsolvable. How was a rich old author murdered in a house surrounded by servants and family when the floors are so creaky that every footstep would have given away the murderer's presence? Who would stand to gain from a series of murders that threatens to bankrupt an entire town? How do you solve a murder in which nobody liked the victim, and everyone seemed to have a motive? Is a killer created by nature or shaped by society? How did a two-millennia-old coup d'etat get recorded by history as a success and a failure at the same time? Follow the adventures of the quirky detective Pertinax Crisp and the ever-steady police captain Thane Ryder as they solve these mysteries.
