Chronicles of Martin Hewitt. By Arthur Morrison. (Ward, Lock, and
Bowden.)—This is a second series of " The Adventures of Martin Hewitt, Investigator." It is needless to criticise detective-stories. They are almost always readable, for they have an interest which appeals to every one. Nor are they difficult to construct. The same skill that constructs the lock can also construct the key that opens it.
