Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Philo Vance becomes involved in the Scarab murder case by chance, though it’s likely that New York's District Attorney, John F.-X. Markham, would have sought his expertise eventually. The complexity of the murder, which involved the brutal killing of philanthropist Benjamin H. Kyle in a renowned Egyptologist's museum, posed a significant challenge. Vance's keen analytical skills and understanding of human psychology were crucial, particularly since he was the first to examine the crime scene. His initial observations revealed misleading clues that ultimately led him to understand the murderer's mindset. The case garnered attention due to the rare blue scarabaeus found beside the victim's mutilated body, which became central to the investigation. While the police viewed the scarab as a straightforward piece of evidence pointing to its owner, Vance was skeptical. He noted that murderers typically do not leave such obvious markers. He emphasized the importance of understanding why the archaeological artifact was placed with the body, believing that uncovering this motive would reveal the true nature of the crime. Vance's pursuit of the underlying reasons behind the murder would prove essential in solving one of the most intricate criminal cases in modern history.
