About this listen

 Ashton-Kirk is a master at unraveling mysteries, yet to those closest to him, he remains an enigma. Young, affluent, and well-connected, he immerses himself in his work with an unyielding passion. Though he brushes off the label of detective, preferring to call himself an investigator, his remarkable contributions have drawn a diverse array of visitors to his door. Scholars, scientists, and those steeped in ancient lore often seek his insights, but it’s the myriad of individuals grappling with criminal conundrums that truly pique his interest. “I’m just more curious than most,” he quips, revealing his relentless pursuit of answers to the puzzles that captivate him. Each step in a crime’s intricate design is an exhilarating challenge for him, and he relishes the thrill of following tangled threads to their resolution. This first case, involving the numismatist Hume, is particularly telling of his unique abilities and offers a glimpse into the intriguing world of how cases find their way to him. (Summary by John T.
