The Doctor, his Wife, and the Clock
By Anna Katharine Green
- Release Date: 1935-01-01
- Genre: Mysteries & Thrillers
There is a murder; a blind physician confesses himself the murderer, and to prove that he could shoot a man through the heart offers to hit a small clock placed at a suitable distance, guided only by the sound it makes in striking. The ending is horrible enough to suit even the boy in German folklore who complained that he could not shudder.
