Requirements: .ePUB reader, 343 KB
Overview: First published in 1932 by Victor Gollancz, this was an early work by TH White, who is best remembered today for The Once and Future King, his cycle of novels on the life of King Arthur.
Darkness at Pemberley opens with two deaths at a Cambridge college (a disclaimer for which White wrote in his original book, reprinted in this edition) behind locked doors. It looks like a murder-suicide and Inspector Buller, who is investigating the crime, is told by his superior at Scotland Yard to ask for that verdict at the upcoming inquest. The evidence supports this judgment on the face of things, but Buller is decidedly unhappy – he senses murder.
Indeed the story has barely started when the inspector cracks the case and identifies the murderer, who then proceeds to gleefully confess in the sure and certain belief that he is completely beyond the reach of law. Part one concludes with Buller utterly defeated in his ability to put the culprit behind bars. Buller quits the force and accepts an invitation from his old friend Charles Darcy to come to Pemberley for a visit.When he tells Charles of his recent failure, his friend, who doesn’t always think before he acts, takes it upon himself to seek out said killer and give him a warning that he intends to kill him within a week in order to see that justice is done.This infuriates the murderer, who begins a campaign of terror, secreting himself inside Pemberley and frightening all those within it. Things get really nasty and another murder is committed by the unseen menace – the killer is hiding somewhere in the gigantic house, but no one can find him.
