Wilson If you like mysteries and great enganging writing skills. . . the kind that keep you up way past your bed time and get you into work late. . . this book if for you. I love Aurthur Conan Doyle, but this guy is better. Half way through the book I found myself reading slower because I didn't want it to end!
15 of 17 people found the following review helpful. Likable Protagonist, but Average Stories By Gypsi Phillips Bates Martin Hewitt, Investigator is a series of short stories linked by the protagonist, Martin Hewitt, and written down by a good friend, the journalist Brett. The similarities to Doyle's Holmes are striking and most likely intentional. Doyle had killed off Holmes in 1893 and other writers were looking to fill that void.Unlike Holmes, however, Martin Hewitt runs an investigative business, is a very personable gentleman, works well with the police force and easily makes friends. Add to this his ingenious ability for disguise and fluidity in thieves cant and in Mr. Hewitt you have an investigator that is able to blend in anywhere and solve the most intriguing of crimes.In Martin Hewitt, Investigator, Brett gives the details of several of Hewitt's most renowned cases, many of which he was intimately involved with as well. They are tales of impossible to solve crimes that Hewitt was able to crack by piecing together a few clues (a burnt out match, raindrops on a hat, uncapitalized letters in a note) where the police detectives had failed.While the solutions to these various crimes and mysteries do fit together well with the evidence and clues, the reader is not privy to all the information that Hewitt is (as he doesn't share it with Brett). Hewitt then chides Brett (or the police) for not having seen such and such clue and then builds his entire case on that missed bit of information. Morrison uses this ploy to make the solving seem even more spectacular, but this style patronizes the reader and is not a fully satisfying reading experience.----A note on the Kindle edition: There were no errors that I noticed, and the format worked fine on Kindle. Sadly, though, the illustrations aren't available on free editions. There was one story, in particular, that would have benefited by being able to see the floor plan.

From what I've read, the character of Martin Hewitt was a contemporary to Holmes, and almost seems to me the "anti-Holmes". However, I did enjoy reading these mysteries very much. I don't think they're any more outdated than the Holmes stories are. But, if you're interested in this book, don't expect it to be like Sherlock Holmes, as Mr. Hewitt is not much like him at all. For example, he's not going to have a client walk into his office and give him his life's history through deduction like Holmes might. The characters don't quite have the personality of the Arthur Conan Doyle characters, and the writing seems simpler, and the mysteries generally simpler. However, I did enjoy reading them very much, and since I think I downloaded this book for free, you can't beat that. I don't think it has an active TOC, but if I remember correctly, very few typos. Anyway, for free you can't complain too much. Mystery lovers, give it a try!
