(4 stars)

i had to listen to the beginning a couple of times before I understood what was going on. after that, it was smooth sailing.


(5 stars)

A wonderful tale, with many a twist and turn. Dated but still a ripping , enjoyable, yarn. The reader, Anna Simon, brings the story to life delightfully, and imbues each character with an individual, believable, voice and dimension. Her pacing and pitch is perfect!

Stunning Mystery


(5 stars)

This is a cerebral mystery, combined with a touch of mysticism & the typical blackmail, thievery & murder. Oh, and a bit of the melodramatic, seemingly unrequited love. It's Great! The LibriVox volunteer is excellent, as always.

another great Edgar Wallace mystery. Had me guessing right to the end. Strong characterization, intricate plot, vivid background.
