J.S. Fletcher's signature flair for atmosphere and his masterful plotting is evident in False Scent. A classic whodunit originally published in 1925, False Scent is perfect tale for fans of Golden Age mysteries and anyone who loves a well-crafted tale of suspense.

Stevenege, of the Scotland Yard Criminal Investigation Department, has just finished a strenuous case and is taking a well-earned holiday in an ancient, historic, very small town in the northern parts of Yorkshire called Alanschester. While there, pursuing his hobby of painting, he encounters a mystery that needs his assistance in unraveling. A person murdered, missing coins, suspicious goings-on!

False Scent by J.S. Fletcher is a gripping mystery that plunges readers into a world of deception, intrigue, and hidden motives. When Stevenege is lead by a local woman to pursue his painting interests they come across a body in the road. In addition to that, the famous Alanschester siege coins are missing from the local museum, and so the mystery begins.

Was the murdered man the thief? Who murdered him? Where are the coins? Stevenege is forced to lay down his brush and palette to solve the mystery.
