The Mystery of a Hansom Cab

Fergus Hume's classic murder mystery, which has enjoyed worldwide popularity for generations. Set in Melbourne, Australia, the book follows the homicide investigation of Detective Gorby after a dead body is discovered inside a hansom cab. The stark divide among the social classes of Melbourne features prominently in the book, as does the character of the city itself, of which Hume wrote: "Over all the great city hung a cloud of smoke like a pall."
