Who killed the man in the hansom cab? — Who is Sal Rawlins? — What will happen to Madge and Brian? — Murder and family secrets create the intrigue in this excellent Australian mystery. Fergus Hume’s novel, originally published in 1886, rapidly became a best-seller. It was very soon published in England and the United States, and over a hundred years later, Geoffrey Haines credited “The Mystery of a Hansom Cab” as doing “more than any book to give the outside world a picture of Melbourne of the late 1880’s” (in “A History of Victoria,” 2006). This is one of those old-time gems that continues to entertain, both in print form and on the air and screens. (Summary by Lynette Caulkins)
