''Ixora: A Mystery'' is a novel written by John Harrison and published in 1888. The story takes place in the small town of Ixora, where a wealthy landowner named Sir Charles Vandrift has recently passed away. His death is shrouded in mystery, as he was found dead in his study with no apparent cause of death. The local police are baffled, and it is up to a young detective named Jack Hildreth to unravel the truth behind the death of Sir Charles. As Jack delves deeper into the case, he discovers a web of secrets and lies that threaten to tear the town apart. The novel is a classic whodunit, full of suspense, intrigue, and unexpected twists and turns. It is a must-read for fans of mystery and detective fiction, as well as anyone who enjoys a good old-fashioned puzzle to solve.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
