Few writers excel Conan Doyle in this class of literature. His style, vigorous, terse, and thoughtful, united to a nice knowledge of the human mind, makes every character a profoundly interesting psychological study.—Chicago Inter-Ocean.

The Parasite. A Story. Illustrated. Post 8vo, Cloth, Ornamental, $1 00.

A strange, uncanny, weird story, ... easily the best of its class. The reader is carried away by it, and its climax is a work of literary art.—Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette.

The Great Shadow. Post 8vo, Cloth, Ornamental, $1 00.

A powerful piece of story-telling. Mr. Doyle has the gift of description, and he knows how to make fiction seem reality.—Independent, N. Y.
