"A mystery novel with Gothic and weird atmosphere, set on the English moors, featuring a country squire in peril and a dutiful son playing detective to understand the attempts on his life, which are eventually linked to a back story in India. Playing prominent parts in the story are a maniac prince, an escaped convict from Dartmoor, disguises and aliases, an Indian Thug intent on revenge -- and quite a bit of bicycling. The story begins with a novel variation on the venerable 'face at the window' scene. The work overall is competent commercial fiction." - Robert Eldridge.
