Summary

"The Silver Bullet" by Fergus Hume is a mystery novel set in what appears to be the late 1800s, that revolves around friends Robin Joyce and Dr. Jim Herrick, whose walking trip becomes a chilling investigation when they stumble upon a brightly lit mansion in a secluded forest, only to discover the murdered Colonel Carr inside. Robin's more emotional nature and Jim's logical approach guide them through the puzzling circumstances of the Colonel's death, revealing secrets about the Colonel's past, his mysterious servant Frisco, and a family potentially connected to the crime and overall motive for the murder. This opening lays the foundation for a suspenseful mystery, blending character exploration with an eerie setting.
