This is the fourth book of the succesful mystery series Madame Storey, by canadian-american author Hulbert Footner. Almost unknown today, Footner was a Candadian journalist and author of many adventure and mystery novels. In The Doctor Who Held Hands Madame Storey is asked to help in stopping the pseudo-psychological activities of a doctor who has set himself up as a psycho-synthetist, seemingly to help his patients, but in fact blackmailing them... Storey is almost imprisoned in her movements from the very start giving the story a bit of claustrophobic feel until little by little she finds a way to break out of the surveillance. The story has a lot of action and a neat twist in the final paragraph.

The pioneering creator of the inverted detective story, R. Austin Freeman was a popular Edwardian author of novels and short stories featuring Dr. Thorndyke, a pathologist-detective. Freemans detective and mystery tales offered an innovative approach to the genre, selling thousands of copies on both sides of the Atlantic. Robert Hawke is a man on the run. After returning from business in London, he finds that a sworn enemy, Will Colville, has been shot dead and the murder weapon belongs to Hawke. But Hawke protests his innocence and is persuaded to go on the run until enough evidence is found to prevent his arrest and conviction. So begins an unwilling adventure where Hawke finds himself setting sail with a vibrant cast of men, casting off for unknown waters and strange islands. And as Hawke embarks on his exotic voyage, enemies abound in the most unlikely of places.

Rezolutny Gwaron od wczesnego dzieciństwa nie ma kontaktu z rodzicami. Nigdy jednak nie przestał marzyć, żeby znów się z nimi spotkać, choć zostało mu po nich tylko zdjęcie sprzed lat. Na szczęście poznał Ebbę, swoją najlepszą przyjaciółkę. Pomysłowa dziewczynka i wygadany, choć nieco rozkojarzony ptak układają szczegółowy plan i wyruszają na wyprawę autostopem aż do szwedzko-norweskiej granicy. To tam Gawron ostatni raz widział się z mamą i tatą. Droga okaże się jednak znacznie bardziej kręta, niż sądzili, i niejednym ich zaskoczy. Sepleniący tirowiec w trasie non-stop do Niemiec? Proszę bardzo. Przejażdżka drezyną z francuskim turystą? Czemu nie. Ucieczka z hotelu sportowym autem? No pewnie. A to dopiero początek. Co czeka przyjaciół u celu tej niezwykłej podróży?
