Call Mr. Fortune

ByH.C. Bailey

Mr. Reginald Fortune, medical adviser to Scotland Yard, is, superficially, one of the Wimseyish "silly ass" brigade - g-droppin', epicurean, upper-class, with a monocle-spouting Scotland Yard chief, the Hon. Stanley Lomas, as Watson. However, there's much more to Reggie than this: Reggie Fortune is, like Father Brown or Mrs. Bradley, a sort of divine justice, willing to murder those whom the law cannot touch, or to manipulate the law so that the murderer remains beyond the reach of the law - he refers to himself several times as "an instrument of Providence".
