News 27 October 1930: NEW FICTION. … “The Nine Nicks” by John
Farndale (Methuen, 7s 6d) … “The Nine Nicks” by John Farndale, is a really good mystery novel. There is no super sleuth, either
amateur or professional, engaged in solving the mystery of a corpse found near
a lonely Yorkshire village, and the reader, copiously provided with clues, may
test his own intelligence by comparison with that of the quite ordinary engaged
couple who ultimately arrive at a solution – a solution, one may add, both
logical and legitimate.
