A baronet in debt, a secretary with ferret eyes, and a young man convicted of a crime his family knows he did not commit. Le Queux wrote over a hundred and fifty thrillers and had a genuine ear for the way blackmail is actually conducted — by hints, in comfortable rooms. The appeal chapters turn on a piece of evidence that everyone concerned would rather not produce.
