" Lieutenant Holst: A Piece of Good News" by Palle Rosenkrantz (1867-1941)

A horse dealer is found murdered in northern Denmark, and lieutenant Holst is on the case. He interviews the suspects and parties involved one by one, and then sets a trap.

This short story is remarkable in sense that includes very acute and sharp dialogue, as a well as an understanding of interrogations that was quite uncommon at the time when it was written.

Palle Rosenkrantz (1867-1941) is considered one of the founders of modern Danish crime fiction.

The story was translated from Danish by Michael Henrik Wynn, the editor of Historyradio.org, and also adapted by him for radio.
