Condition: Very good. First abridged edition. Small 8vo. Original dark grey cloth blocked in black. Usual mild toning to margins; cloth a little bumped and rubbed at extremities, but overall VG. An attractive abridgment of the weird & supernatural tales of psychic detective Flaxman Low, written by mother & son team 'E. & H. Hero…n'. The stories first appeared in Pearson's Magazine (1899). Hesketh was a prolific turn-of-the-century author, creator of then then very popular sadistic bandit character Don Q., as noted by Bleiler now "deservedly forgotten". Book.
