More about the book
She drew off her left glove, a delicate, crinkled suede affair, and offered her bare hand to the surgeon...from the polished pink nails of the tapering fingers to the firm, well-moulded wrist, it was distinctly the hand of a woman of ease - one that had never known labour, a pampered hand, Dr Prescott told himself. "The forefinger," she explained calmly, "I should like to have it amputated at the first joint, please." - from Jacques Futrelle's The Superfluous Finger, just one of the stories from this first-rate collection of Edwardian tales of cosmopolitan crime.
