4 Clues, 1 Detective

191 Views 13 Votes 16 Comments

Crime fiction whether in books or on screen is one of my favourite genres.  Based on four clues, can you guess the fictional detective? The character may be from a book or a TV series.

It is time to take out your magnifying glasses and put on your thinking caps. Guess the detective and share your score.

Good luck!
