Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book first engages its reader with the chance meeting of two acquaintances in a theatre in London. One, an adventurer and war correspondent recounting his story to the other, a mining king newly returned from abroad. This meeting and the ensuing dinner invitation set the stage for a sequence of puzzling and unsettling events, beginning with a haunting sensation of recognition, and the witnessing of a scream of anguish. An atmosphere of unease pervades this book, as the protagonist finds himself in a vast country house, with a cast of opaque and contradictory characters, on a Christmas Day turned sinister. His growing sense of unease at the strange features of the house and the disconcerting behaviour of its inhabitants leads him to suspect a mystery, or perhaps even something more sinister, may lie at its heart. The tale that unfolds is an exploration of deep-seated mystery, an unsettling and haunting adventure into the unknown. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330175620_0
