“Lady Mary—” he began.
“Jacob,” she murmured, “come and tell me quickly, or Jack will be back with those cigarettes.”

THE END
NOVELS by E. PHILLIPS OPPENHEIM
“He is past master of the art of telling a story. He has humor, a keen sense of the dramatic, and a knack of turning out a happy ending just when the complications of the plot threaten worse disasters.”—New York Times.
“Mr. Oppenheim has few equals among modern novelists. He is prolific, he is untiring in the invention of mysterious plots, he is a clever weaver of the plausible with the sensational, and he has the necessary gift of facile narrative.”—Boston Transcript.
