Coles One of My Sons: Restored Classics to Go Edition at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Anna Katharine Green's One of My Sons begins with a deathbed scene so charged with urgency that it instantly pulls an ordinary passerby into a family's darkest secrets. Summoned by a little girl to help her failing grandfather, the narrator finds an elderly man clutching a mysterious paper, then watches him die before he can name the person meant to receive it. What follows is a tightly wound mystery of poison, hidden identities, and divided loyalties, as the narrator is drawn into a coroner's inquiry and a household shaken by grief and suspicion. As the investigation deepens, clues point toward the wealthy stockbroker Leighton Le Droit Gillespie, whose respectable surface masks troubling contradictions. A remembered favor to a fugitive, a match-box marked with his initials, a suspicious phial, and a woman fleeing from his carriage all suggest a man living a double life. With Sam Underhill pressing witnesses and the narrator pursuing evidence through lodging houses, bars, and dangerous streets, the search leads to a startling confrontation in a Salvation Army hall and toward a new phase of the case in "The Little House in New Jersey." This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.
