In one story, Van Dusen investigates a murder that takes place in a locked room. In another, he solves a case involving a missing diamond necklace. Throughout the book, Van Dusen's unconventional methods and unique perspective make him a formidable opponent for even the most cunning criminals.The Problem of the Superfluous Finger is a classic example of the locked room mystery genre, which was popular in the early 20th century.

Futrelle's writing is engaging and entertaining, and his stories are sure to keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.Amputated? gasped Dr. Prescott.
