This is a collection of short stories introducing Parker Pyne. Pyne is a former statistician turned advisor to those with troubled spirits (his personal ad reads "Are you happy? If not, consult Parker Pyne"). The first half of the book uses Pyne's knowledge of statistics to cure everything from broken hearts to boredom. The second half of the book follows Parker Pyne on a "vacation" through the middle east where he uses his skills to solve crimes.

There comes a time when a master detective needs to get away from it alll. But for Mr. Parker Pyne, it was not to be. Crime followed him like a shadow from the moment he took his seat on the Orient Express.
