Summary "Ashton-Kirk, Investigator" by John T. McIntyre is a detective novel written during the early 20th century. The story introduces readers to Ashton-Kirk, a young and wealthy investigator known for his intellectual curiosity and a talent for solving mysteries. He is approached by Miss Edyth Vale, who seeks his help regarding her fiancé, Allan Morris, who is entangled in a troubling situation involving a numismatist named Hume, whose mysterious past and potential involvement in criminal affairs becomes a focal point of the investigation. The opening of the narrative sets the stage as young Pendleton arrives at Ashton-Kirk's residence, hinting at their established friendship and the expectations of an intriguing case. Once in the company of Miss Vale, Ashton-Kirk learns about her troubling engagement with Morris, who is burdened by an unknown threat that she believes involves Hume. As Miss Vale recounts her observations of Hume's character and his strange relationship with Morris, the narrative builds suspense, culminating in the revelation that Hume has been found murdered, opening the door to a complex investigation into the dynamics of their intertwined lives.
