Complete and unabridged, with 57 full-page plates by James McNeill Whistler, Walter Sickert and László Mednyánszky. A moneylender is murdered behind a door locked with a silver key, and the police have four people who wanted him dead. Wallace wrote a hundred and seventy books and at one point was said to account for a quarter of all books read in England. This edition includes fifty-seven plates of night paintings by John Atkinson Grimshaw, László Mednyánszky and Stanisław Witkiewicz, among others.
