6th printing. $1.50

An absorbing story of New York and Long Island to-day.

N. Y. Sun: “Distinctly an interesting story—one of the sort that the reader will not lay down before he goes to bed.”

N. Y. Post: “By comparison with the work of Anna Katherine Green ... it is exceptionally clever ... told interestingly and well.”

N. Y. Tribune: “The Holladay Case was a capital story of crime and mystery. In The Marathon Mystery the author is in even firmer command of the trick. He is skilful in keeping his reader in suspense, and every element in it is cunningly adjusted to preserving the mystery inviolate until the end.”

Boston Transcript: “The excellence of its style, Mr. Stevenson apparently knowing well the dramatic effect of fluency and brevity, and the rationality of avoiding false clues and attempts unduly to mystify his readers.”

Boston Herald: “This is something more than an ordinary detective story. It thrills you and holds your attention to the end. But beside all this the characters are really well drawn and your interest in the plot is enhanced by interest in the people who play their parts therein.”
