Summary "Dead Men's Money" by J. S. Fletcher is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a young man named Hugh Moneylaws, whose life takes a dramatic turn when a suspicious lodger, James Gilverthwaite, comes to stay at his mother’s home. As events unfold, the plot thickens with themes of murder, secrets, and a significant amount of money that complicates the situation further. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Hugh Moneylaws, who observes the enigmatic Gilverthwaite arriving at their home. The man, boasting of wealth and mysterious origins, soon engages Hugh in secretive dealings that set the stage for impending danger. After a series of unusual occurrences, including Gilverthwaite falling ill and sending Hugh to deliver a message under dubious circumstances, the narrative escalates when Hugh discovers a murdered man near the appointed meeting place. Caught in a web of intrigue involving money and unresolved identities, Hugh must navigate the chaos that unfolds, leading him into the depths of a perilous mystery.
