"THE RIOIEOT DETECTIVE';
MRS. BILLETT'S L'ATE'ST
(London Free Press)
:Public taste in reading matter
seems to run, like everyt'h'ing else, in
cycles. Some years ago the dime
thriller and the penny shocker were
all the rage. They were read univ-
ersally and omnivorously. Today the
crime story, detective fiction, again is
as popular asever, and on a higher
plane. While the shockers still shocky
they no longer insula the intelligence
of the reader. For a couple of hours'
entertainment in the evening there is
nothing better than a ,well-con'struct-
ed mystery story. There is a certain
'fascination in tn'atdhing one's wits
against the author's, in seeing whe-
ther one can discover at page 115 of
a 314 page b'ook who the murderer
was, and why he did it. Providing the
writer does not play the dirty trick cif
dragging in by .the hair some new
character at the .end of a complicated
plot, there is always a pleasurable
sensation to be derived from this
harmless pastime. 'Ef one's nerves are
strong and' one's system inured' to
murder mysteries, they are fine, but
theyshould not read Mabel Brough-
ton Billett's new book, "The Robot
iDetective," just before retiring. It is
recommen'de'd as daytime reading for
timid persons, night time reading for
the addi'c't, but excellent reading for
MI.
Her Third Book.
Published at first in England, and
naw in Toronto by the Macini/tan's' in
Canada, this is the second novel Mrs.
Billett has completed since corning to
LJon'don. Her last boolc was. "The
Shadow ,on the .Steppe,":a story of in-
ternational intrigue with. an exotic
setting. In' "Tlhe Robot D'etec'tive"
she gets back to an environment
which she koows intineately' and por-
trays realistically -the Nicola Valley
in the Okanagan Lake district of Bri-
tish Columbia, This was the s'ebtin'g,
too, of her first book, "Calamity
JHouse," and many of the characters
and place navies in that work appear
again in her latest. Mrs. Biliett lived
for some time in the part of British
.Co'lum'bia where the action of her no-
vel takes place,, and her background
leas that ring of authenticity which is
predicated on first-hand knowledge,
She ,knows small townlife and small
,to'wn people, their philosophy, their
economics, their reactions to any gi-
ven situation. One imagines that her
hooks %are read with mare than usual
interest in the small Bniiti'sh Colum-
bia town in which- she once made her
house, One hopes, however, that the
wholesale slaughter, death and disas-
ter which seem to ,dog the place are
products of her imagination. Other-
wise, the American tourists . will ` be
taking the upper no'a'ds to avoid it.
It is always refreshing to find
siotnethtng new in the way of detec-
tive flciion Mrs. Billets• approaches
the solving of a murder -or series o'e
inrdetse-Araqnn a"neve angle. Admir-
ing` the English people very much,
although 'herself e native of Harron
'County, the writer has cast an ex-
,
mperial officer in bhe role cif hero,
or solution-ifinsder. / He has the s!tarlt-
lieg idea of card -indexing the whole
population of his town (2,700 , of
'them) for future reference. His files
contain as complete information as
poseible about the past and present
of every inhlalbitant. So, when a mean
and his wife are sl'a'in, in cold blood,
the major goes to lis "relent, detec-
tive"; asks hint questions, feeds hurn
facts, and gets his answer. The sys-
tem is modeled on that used by the
police of Berlin, whose files olf infor-
mation regarding both interment and
'guilty fill great bu'ild'ings;
A Human Guiding Brain.
eJ!teThe mechanical device for the de-
tection
ction of crime, invented and perfect-
ed by the German police, which the.
author adopts 1o'r the little B.C. cam -
Inutility, certainly lives up to all that.
is claimed for it. However, more in-
genious than 'the robot detective is
the living,,. flesh -and -blood .titan -hunt-
er whto oper'a'tes the levers that make
the nne'ch'anical 'appar'atus go. Orme
gets the impression that without this
human guiding brain the. robot would
not be worth mu'c'h, "The Robot De-
tective" (a clever title, incidentally) is
certainly replete with action. Prem'e-
ditlated murder takes the lives of two
men and two women; a mine digester
wipes out a score more. MTs. Bi1lelbt
'handles a complicated plot, with in-
genuity and finesse. Its ramifications
extend from the Persian Gulf over
the seven seas to the Rocky. Mts.
Its characters include well -breed and
not -so -weld -bred' Englishmen, Austra-
lians,. Americans; Canadians and Chi-
cago .gangstens. In less skillful hands
it might have become very confus-
ing. but it is not. If you like a battle
of wits, with rules accordling to Mar-
quis of .Queents'bu'ry, you will find it
in "The Rabat Detective."
This book was chosen a couple of
months ago as one of. those recom-
mended by the Crime Club Society of
!Great Britain, which has • its c'ounter-
part in the United States. This is the
sane society which recommended the
works of distinguished English writ-
ers of detective fiction. Fortunately,
hers book was published in En'gla'nd,
and not in the United States, or Mrs.
B'illett's- name Would have been Pink-
ed with, p'ossi'bly, that of Firan'k L.
Packard. She would not Tike that.
