Detective and mystery stories; London (England) -- Fiction
"Mr. Le Queux is so true to his own style that any one
familiar with his books would certainly guess him to be the
author, even if his name were not given."--_Methodist
Recorder._
"'As good wine needs no bush' so no mystery story by Mr. Le
Queux, the popular weaver of tales of crime, needs praise
for its skill. Any novel with this author's name appended is
sure to be ingenious in design and cleverly worked
out."--_Bookseller._
"Mr. Le Queux is always reliable. The reader who picks up
any of his latest novels knows what to expect."--_Bookman._
"Mr. Le Queux's admirers are legion, and the issue of a new
novel is to them one of the most felicitous events that can
happen."--_Newcastle Daily Chronicle._
"Mr. Le Queux is the master of the art of
mystery-creating."--_Liverpool Daily Post._

MYSTERY & DETECTIVE STORIES
+The Hollow Needle+ _By Maurice Leblanc_
A story of Arsene Lupin, the greatest, most ingenious and
most daring criminal in modern fiction.
"A thrilling and fascinating story ... not less exciting or
less mystifying than its predecessors."--_Liverpool Daily
Post._
"Well worthy of its place in the famous set of
adventures."--_Observer._
+The Black Spider+ _By Carlton Dawe_
"Described as a sensational story of a female 'Raffles' this
tale ... in every way lives up to its
description."--_Birmingham Daily Post._
"Full of thrills from beginning to end."--_Western Mail._
"An extremely powerful story ... well worked out, and the
mixture of romance with a story of the 'Raffles' type is well
calculated to please."--_T.P.'s Weekly._
+The Window at The White Cat+ _by Mary Roberts Rinehart_
_Author of "The Circular Staircase," etc._
"The plot is skilful and the incidents exciting. It is
something more than a mere detective story: there is
character in it, and a pleasant love story, and a quite
refreshing sense of humour."--_The Outlook._
"We greatly enjoyed the brisk dialogue and the unexpected
ending."--_Evening Times._
+The Wife He Never Saw+ _By Max Marcin_
