Mystery Free Book Challenge #7

One night in Deptford, Max was waiting in a house for a burglar to attend. The man appeared as expected, but managed to turn heel and flee. Max shot after him as swiftly as possible. He returned after a short space, with the burglar in tow. Granny enquired as to how difficult it had proven to catch the fellow.

"It was a simple matter," Max replied. "By the time I left the house, he had a 27-step lead, and he was taking eight steps to my five. It would have been bleak, save for the fact that he is a short man, and two of my strides were worth five of his. In fact, from that, you should be able to tell me how many strides I required to apprehend the scoundrel."
