    The year is 1909, and a Washington attorney, fresh from taking a sensitive deposition in Pittsburgh, finds himself enmeshed in a murder, where he is the prime suspect. To top it all off, his train crashes on the way home, and the deposition testimony goes missing. In the meantime, he falls for a young woman who just happens to be the witness's niece and his law partner's girlfriend! As the mystery deepens, her own involvement in the case emerges.From the pen of the great Mary Roberts Rinehart, The Man in Lower Ten offers a authentic window on the world of the upper classes in the United States in the early twentieth century, when there were no airplanes, trains were the preferred method of long-distance travel, and even automobiles and telephones were not that common. And, of course, forensic science hardly existed. A fascinating book which will leave the reader in awe of how far we've come and maybe just a little nostalgic for the world that we've lost.

    The Man in Lower Ten is written by Mary Roberts Rinehart and was initially published in 1909. Nevertheless, it is still extremely readable today and offers a fascinating glimpse into a period that is nearly a century removed from our own while maintaining a timeless emotional tone. the first detective book to top bestseller charts across the country. Lawrence, an attorney-in-law, gets framed after he wakes up on the wrong side of the bed, in the wrong bed, with the wrong clothing on, and with his suitcase. He was on his way to deliver important documents related to a criminal case. Blakely is aware that he must track down the genuine criminal before being arrested, but regrettably, our hero is not your typical tough-guy hero. The first book ever published by Mary Roberts Rinehart, possibly the best American mystery author of her generation, is The Man in Lower Ten. It moves at breakneck speed while fusing adventure, suspense, terror, and mystery. The Circular Staircase (1908), which more or less popularized the spinster "Had I but Known" style most generally associated with the author, was Mary Roberts Rinehart's (1876-1958) debut book, but it didn't come out between hard covers until the year after.
