Summary "The Case of the Golden Bullet" by Grace Isabel Colbron and Augusta Groner is a crime fiction novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book revolves around Detective Joseph Muller, a Secret Service detective in the Imperial Austrian police, known for his unassuming demeanor and remarkable investigative skills. With a backdrop of mystery, the story centers around a murder that initially presents as a suicide, but as Muller delves deeper, it becomes evident that there's more lurking beneath the surface involving themes of revenge and hidden motives. In this intriguing narrative, the plot thickens when Professor Paul Fellner is found dead at his desk, shot with a golden bullet. Both doors to his study are locked from the inside, confounding authorities as they conclude it must have been suicide. However, Muller quickly deduces that this is a case of murder, leading to a riveting pursuit to uncover the truth. He navigates through layers of deception, including a love affair with the wife of a powerful man, which ultimately links to the motive behind the professor’s demise. As Muller gathers evidence, including a tortoise-shell hairpin and a unique golden bullet, the conclusion reveals the complexity of justice, the impact of personal tragedy, and the concealed hearts of individuals involved.
