About this book

While riding through a wooded part of New York State one autumn day, the narrator of the title story finds an unfinished old stone house: scaffolding still hangs under the eaves, and only two of its ten large windows ever got frames. The narrator goes in to look around, until someone seizes the narrator's arm from behind.

Four shorter tales follow, among them A Memorable Night, The Black Cross and A Mysterious Case. Anna Katharine Green's collection first appeared in 1891.

Anna Katharine Green

Anna Katharine Green (1846-1935) was an American novelist often called the mother of detective fiction. Her bestselling debut, The Leavenworth Case, brought realism and legal detail to the genre, and over a long career she created recurring sleuths who influenced writers from Conan Doyle to Agatha Christie.
