Keon, Grace. “When love is strong.” $1.25. Benziger.
7–17046.
A bank robbery and the search for and discovery of the robber form the plot of this novel which, contrary to the usual detective story, hinges upon the love of the heroine for the guilty man who has become her husband, and whom she raises to her own level by the help of her Catholic faith. It is really a tale of regeneration through love, altho much of the book is concerned with the unravelling of a mystery in which hypnotism plays a part.
“Miss Keon’s very good story is artistic enough to deserve the attention of mature readers who are not too sophisticated by indulgence in contemporary problems-plays or the bold realism which caters to the prevalent taste.”
