A vanishing fortune, a suspicious death, and a tortoise with secrets—Dorrington is on the case, and nothing is too strange to ignore 🐢💼
“There’s always a motive—sometimes it just moves slower than expected.” — Horace Dorrington
The Affair of the Tortoise
When an inheritance goes missing under bizarre circumstances, and the only witness is a West African tortoise, Horace Dorrington is called in to investigate. Dorrington suspects the crime is more calculated than it seems. As he unearths layers of greed, manipulation, and deception, the exotic pet becomes a key to the entire mystery. With his usual mix of charm and ruthlessness, Dorrington follows the slow trail to an ending no one expected.
This offbeat and clever tale proves that with Dorrington, even the strangest crimes are handled with precision—and profit.
Written and created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s contemporaries.
