The Last Exploit of Harry the Actor by Ernest Bramah | The Midnight Archive — Classic Detective Audiobook

📌 Patreon — ad-free, early access, bonus content (tiers from $2.99/month)https://www.patreon.com/NocturnalTalesThe whole case turns on one insignificant fact: Max Carrados happened to call on his friend, the inquiry agent Louis Carlyle, at the exact moment Carlyle was leaving for the safe deposit in Lucas Street, Piccadilly. While Carlyle attends to his deed-box, the blind man sits quietly among the palms in the great circular hall, doing nothing at all — or so it appears. What he is actually doing is listening to one of the most secure buildings in London, and hearing something in it that nobody with working eyes has noticed. Meanwhile a celebrated impersonator is preparing the finest job of his career, behind steel doors that are not supposed to open for anyone. Max Carrados is one of the most remarkable detectives ever put on paper: a gentleman who lost his sight and solves his cases entirely without it, and George Orwell counted the Carrados stories among the only detective tales since Poe worth re-reading. Presented complete and unabridged, exactly as Ernest Bramah wrote it, from the Midnight Archive, Nocturnal Tales' library of the classic detective stories that built the genre.ℹ️ FOR LISTENERSThis is a complete, unabridged reading of The Last Exploit of Harry the Actor by Ernest Bramah, collected in Max Carrados (1914) and now in the public domain.
