“This differs from most other detective tales in being the story of a mystery rather than the glorification of a detective. It also differs from them in keeping the solution from even the reader until the last page. Lord and Lady Dangerville seem to have been magnetised to attract mysteries, and mysteries of no mean radius.”—Acad.
“For the lovers of Sherlock Holmes ‘The Dangerville inheritance’ will be a fine detective story; but as an unusual drama of human life, and as an excellently told history it will have a more discriminating audience.”
