About this book

A criminal genius named John Flack breaks out of Broadmoor carrying a grudge, a hidden fortune, and a plan only a diseased brilliance could invent. On his trail is Mr. J. G. Reeder, whose gentle appearance hides the instincts of a man who has spent a lifetime among killers and thieves. The chase turns personal when Margaret Belman, the young woman Reeder quietly loves, is drawn toward a lonely house on the coast riddled with secret passages and old menace. Wallace lets the suspense build through fog, cliffs, and a villain who is genuinely frightening rather than merely wicked. Published in 1927, it stands as one of the eeriest and most atmospheric of the Reeder books.
