By Arthur Henry Veysey. Author of "A Cheque for Three Thousand," etc. Is a well balanced detective story. It is not overdrawn as such books usually are, but full of mysterious and vital interest. It is a departure from Mr. Veysey's previous humorous style in "A Cheque for Three Thousand," and "A Pedigree in Pawn," proving him to be a remarkably versatile writer. Most of the events take place on shipboard. It is a powerful story, with a most dramatic climax, and inimitably original characters. Cloth bound. $1.25
