It's true that Denton and Henry James are both American writers now living in London, but they have little else in common: James has the gravitas (and perhaps the pomposity) of a living legend, master of the literary kingdom, while Denton...well, he's scruffy and often covered in dog hair. But he does have this knack for sorting out problems, and James has just such a problem. There was a box, you see, and now it's gone missing, and in the box were certain letters that, if made public, could be most embarrassing. Most embarrassing indeed.

Kenneth Cameron was born in 1931 in Rochester, NY. He is the author of seven novels featuring Denton, a compulsively romantic American with a dark past and a knack for solving other people's problems, though not necessarily his own. Cameron has written more than 30 books, some under the name George Bartram and some--with his son, Christian Cameron--under the name Gordon Kent. He lives most of the time in the Adirondack Mountains of New York State.

Paperback. Etat : Fair. An expatriate U.S. Civil War veteran and sheriff turned novelist living in Edwardian London follows a deadly trail in search of a missing box. It's true that Denton and Henry James are both American writers now living in London, but they have little else in common: James has the gravitas (and perhaps the pomposity) of a living legend, master of the literary kingdom, while Denton . . well, he's scruffy and often covered in dog hair. But he does have this knack for sorting out problems, and James has just such a problem. There was a box, you see, and now it's gone missing, and in the box were certain letters that, if made public, could be most embarrassing. Most embarrassing indeed. Praise for the Denton Mysteries "Cameron . . paints a striking portrait of London, and Denton is a hero whose unheroic side only makes his character more appealing." --Kirkus Reviews on The Frightened Man "This is no dry, stuffy, repressed Edwardian depiction of events. There are beautiful, concise and accurate descriptions, comedy scenes and credible characters in this novel, which skillfully combines mystery and history.
