This is the third Raffles book. It has quite a melancholy air about it, as Raffles’ companion is writing sometime after Raffles had died. Adventures that had not been written before, that had been withheld for various reasons. This book is more like a collection of short stories than the others. But some do have some of the old lightheartedness about them. I particularly liked the adventure which involved the police museum collections of items detained by them from the adventures before he “drowned”. I also liked that more of Raffles cricketing prowess is mentioned. And that other facets of Raffles’ life are part of these recollections. The ending has been done in a very touching way to draw the whole of the escapades to a close. The reader was very good, though different than the one in the first two books. She read differently, but still in a way that kept up the interest in the book.
