As a collaboration between lifelong friends Charles Dickens and Wilkie
Collins, No Thoroughfare was printed in novel form in December 1867
and produced as a play that same month.
When orphaned Walter Wilding
finds that he has misinherited his fortune, it is up to his best friends
and executors to undo the mischief. The search for the real Walter
Wilding leads them to the Swiss Alps and beyond.
A sweet tale of
mystery, intrigue, and love, No Thoroughfare is a whimsically short
novel in play-like form that features some of our favorite Dickens
iconic characters.
This volume contains both the novel and the play
forms of No Thoroughfare bound together for the first time ever.
No Thoroughfare is available for purchase at createspace.com, amazon.com, and in the kindle store.

The Red House Mystery by A.A. Milne
In 1922 A.A. Milne published The Red House Mystery, his only mystery novel. Set in contemporary time when written, Milne's novel is a delightful "whodunnit" story of two friends who find themselves in the middle of a puzzle and the only ones who know enough to sort everything out. Milne's red herrings, suspense, and light-hearted comedy make this novel a hidden treasure of British literature. If you only know Milne for Winnie the Pooh, this novel might just convince you to try out everything else he has written too
