''The Campion Diamonds'' is a mystery novel written by Sophie May and first published in 1897. The story follows the theft of a valuable diamond necklace from the wealthy Campion family, and the subsequent investigation by a young detective named Mr. Gryce. As he delves deeper into the case, Mr. Gryce uncovers a web of deceit and betrayal among the Campion family and their acquaintances, leading to a surprising and dramatic conclusion. Along the way, readers are treated to vivid descriptions of turn-of-the-century New York City and a cast of colorful characters, including a cunning thief, a mysterious woman in black, and a charming young heiress who may hold the key to the case. With its engaging plot, well-drawn characters, and atmospheric setting, ''The Campion Diamonds'' is a classic of the mystery genre that will keep readers guessing until the very end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
