| Summary | "Max Carrados" by Ernest Bramah is a collection of detective stories written in the early 20th century. The book features Max Carrados, an intriguing blind detective known for his keen deductive skills and remarkable ability to perceive details that others might overlook. The narratives typically revolve around Carrados solving various perplexing mysteries, using his unique perspective as a blind man to outsmart both criminals and skeptics alike. The opening of "Max Carrados" introduces us to the titular character through his acquaintance, Mr. Carlyle, who visits Carrados to seek help with a potentially counterfeit ancient coin. As Carlyle explains the urgency and significance of determining the coin's authenticity due to a related crime, we learn about Carrados's extraordinary senses and ability to discern details without sight. The dialogue establishes a blend of camaraderie and professional respect, highlighting Carrados’s methodical approach as he navigates the circumstances surrounding the case and engages in mind-bending deductions. The stage is set for a series of intriguing whodunits that promise not only to challenge Carrados but to showcase the author's clever writing and the detective's sharp intellect.
