Summary

The Case of Laker, Absconded is part of The Chronicles of Martin Hewitt. A junior bank clerk elopes with a fortune - but without his fiance. The police reconstruct the absconder's route, from bank to train station to the Continent. However, Martin Hewitt believes the trail is a little too easy to follow. With the help of the jilted lover, he embarks on a search to discover what really happened to the missing man.

Arthur George Morrison (November 1, 1863 - December 4, 1945) was an English writer and journalist known for his realistic novels and stories about working-class life in London's East End, and for his detective stories, featuring the detective Martin Hewitt.
