Opinion is divided upon which author conceived the idea of combining the perennially popular subgenre of detective fiction with the equally popular one of supernatural fiction. Whilst that ambiguity suggests that whoever it was did not make as much capital of the inspiration as perhaps, they should have done, it was certain to be popular with a substantial readership.

The author of this book, Reginald Coupland was an Oxfor...

Each of us is faced with an impossible problem. Each of us has broken some portion of God's Law. (That's called sin.) Unfortunately, this means we are destined to stand before God at the Great White Throne Judgment at the end of time. God's Law is pure law. It is cold, logical, unemotional, and perfect. It is just. It is righteous. But, as such, it does not offer grace, compassion, forgiveness, or hope. Therefore, each of us will be found guil...
