Arthur Benjamin Reeve (known simply as Arthur B. Reeve) was an American mystery writer best known for creating the character of Dr. Craig Kennedy, a scientist detective at Columbia University similar to Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Thorndyke, who uses his knowledge of chemistry and psychoanalysis to solve cases, employing at time exotic devices lie detectors, gyroscopes, and portable seismographs. In fact, Professor Kennedy is sometimes called "The American Sherlock Holmes," and like Holmes he has his own Dr. Watson-like sidekick in Walter Jameson, a newspaper reporter. Reeve's fame is based on the 82 Craig Kennedy stories, published in Cosmopolitan magazine between 1910 and 1918. The Master Mystery is the novelization of a 1919 silent serial film told in 15 episodes from scenarios written by Arthur B. Reeve in collaboration with Charles A. Logue. The film stars Harry Houdini and is also known as Houdini Super-serial. It tells the story of Justice Department agent Quentin Locke as he investigates a powerful cartel protected by The Automaton, a robot. This book is illustrated with all the photographic reproduction that appeared in the original edition by GROSSET & DUNPAL, NEW YORK, 1919.
