From The Files of Ellis H. Parker
Episode 267 is adapted from a first-person article in True Detective Mysteries, December 1928, written from the perspective of Detective Ellis H. Parker of Mount Holly, New Jersey, who during his career was known as “America's Sherlock Holmes.” He solved 288 of the 300 major crimes he worked on during his career, obtaining signed confessions in more than half of them. His most high-profile case was the Lindbergh kidnapping. Stories of his cases were collected in a book by Fletcher Pratt titled “The Cunning Mulatto” in 1935.
