Description
The Reverend Montague Wynnter stories are based in the earlier part of the Twentieth Century, and there are parallels of the Sherlock Holmes adventures that were so popular at the end of the Nineteenth Century. The partnership between Reverend Montague Wynnter and Sir Charles Berwick is not unlike that between Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson and the two investigators approach the world of the supernatural in the same dauntless and indefatigable spirit in which Holmes and Watson approach the underworld of Victorian London. Berwick is often bemused and skeptical about Wynnter’s findings but follows him in a spirit of true friendship, allowing his friend to take the lead in the investigations, however, when it comes to action it is usually Charlie Berwick who is called upon to do the deed.. All manner of supernatural adversaries are encountered in the seventeen stories that are told in this volume from vampires to werewolves, from golems to ghosts. The stories are mysteries in the true sense and it is never quite clear what is going on until the final resolution.
