Summary: "Lanagan, Amateur Detective" by Edward H. Hurlbut is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Jack Lanagan, an accomplished police reporter for the San Francisco "Enquirer", known for his connections within the police department and his knack for uncovering stories that often elude others. As the narrative unfolds, it delves into the investigations and complex cases Lanagan navigates, weaving a tale of crime, moral dilemmas, and the intricacies of human nature. At the start of the book, we meet Jack Lanagan, who is deeply embedded in the workings of the San Francisco police department, often benefiting from the trust of police officers and detectives. We witness his interactions with characters like Horace Lathrop, a shyster lawyer, as they exchange information about an arrest of a young woman, Grace Turner. Lanagan demonstrates his investigative prowess as he uncovers a web of circumstances surrounding Grace and her ailing brother, hinting at a much larger story involving a potential conspiracy linked to a notorious criminal known as Harry Short. The opening sets the stage for a gripping detective tale filled with tension, resourcefulness, and a strong drive for justice as Lanagan pursues leads that intertwine personal and professional stakes.
