Well, I have to say, this was mounds better than the Vampire's Tear.

A slightly creepy story, with a mysterious stranger who comes to town, opens a shop, hires an assistant, gets mysterious customers who have mysteriously good fortunes days after they come see him; this was a really good story!!

Yeah, this was a middle grade level story, but I found it like Ruskin Bond's mysterious stories, most of which I have read in [b:Dust on the mountain|475187|Dust on the mountain|Ruskin Bond|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1405004956l/475187._SY75_.jpg|463429].

What I didn't like: Like with most mysterious short stories, the story doesn't seem quite complete.....He dies, and so does she? Did he do a voodoo doll thing on her as well? Was the whole building her voodoo doll, and so when it burned, she died too? Or maybe he tied himself to Anna, and so when he died, she died too?

A good short story, wonderful for people wanting to improve vocabulary. In general, one of the good mystery short stories I've come across.

Professor Verity invented "the Truth Machine". Soon, millions of people knew about this news, and many people wrote him. First clients were Mrs Seeker, Inspector Sack, Dr Simpl from each country. I thought this machine is very useful, but I noticed this isn't good machine later. In addition to this, I don't like Verity. Maybe you, too. Please read this story.

This book's main character is Professor Verity.
He invented the truth machine.
He said,"I made this machine because I hate lies."
However,it was not true.

I don't like Professor Verity.
He looks good person,but he is a bad person.
However,I like this story.
