This volume of 4 Detectives collects the stories of four very different detectives. Bromley Barnes is a retired Chief from the Treasury Department who is often enlisted for cases of national security. Trent's Last Case shows us the investigation of an industrial magnate by a newspaper journalist through all its twists and turns. The four "Divinations of Kala Persad" focus on an intuitive Indian national who aids a young English detective. Gallagher is an eager street-smart newsboy who helps track down and capture a murderer. This diverse group of investigators offers plenty of thrills and pleasurable reading.

When the American plutocrat Sigsbee Manderson is found dead on his estates, Philip Trent is asked by the editor of the Record to investigate the mysterious case. What caused Manderson to rise in the middle of the night and leave the house without properly dressing and without his false teeth? Who did he meet and why? Who was the murderer? Marlowe, his personal secretary? Brunner, his business assistant? Or his beautiful wife? Will Trent be able to solve the mystery? Or will this be Trent's Last Case?
