Detective and mystery stories; England -- Fiction; Love stories
"Full of boisterous mirth, and _leaves the pleasantest of
impressions_."--_Scotsman._
"With this tale Mr. Hornung has made a _distinct step forward_
as a novelist. A capital story."--_Glasgow Herald._
"The tale is _skilfully constructed_, and the final unravelling
of its threads is likely to come as a surprise even to the most
hardened of novel-readers."--_Manchester Guardian._
"For many persons, no doubt, the interest of the story will
culminate in the discovery of 'the rightful heir,' but life at
'The Towers' has incidents exciting and amusing enough, quite
independent of its conclusion."--_Illustrated London News._

SECOND EDITION.
THE ROGUE'S MARCH.
By E. W. HORNUNG,
_Author of "My Lord Duke," "Tiny Luttrell," "A Bride from the Bush,"
etc._
Price 6s.
"It is a tragic, fascinating, extraordinarily vivid story, which
it is difficult to put down when we begin to read it, and the
impression of which it is impossible for a while to shake
off."--_Daily News._
"We have had, so far as I know, no one on whom the mantle of
Charles Reade can be said to have fallen. In the author of 'The
Rogue's March' we seem to have found him."--_Illustrated London
News._
"'The Rogue's March' may be commended without the least reservation
as a most spirited and interesting story, admirably told, and
without a dull page from cover to cover. It will be interesting to
see if Mr. Hornung will follow up this book with others of the same
kind. If he does so, the mantle of the author of 'It's Never Too
Late to Mend' and 'Hard Cash' will have fallen on worthy
shoulders."--_Sketch._
"It was with the greatest possible difficulty that we refrained
from scampering through the pages of each chapter to see what
happened in the end of it. Mr. Hornung keeps us in a state of
palpitating wonder all through, and then surprises us at the
last."--_Daily Chronicle._
"One of the most exciting tales that has appeared during many
seasons."--_Morning Post._
SECOND EDITION.
TINY LUTTRELL.
By E. W. HORNUNG,
_Author of "My Lord Duke," "The Rogue's March," "A Bride from the
Bush," etc._
Price 6s.
"Mr. Hornung's Australian stories have won him many admirers, and
his 'Tiny Luttrell' cannot fail to increase his reputation and
their number. The bush is depicted with a vividness, a sympathy, a
restraint that make you long to take the next ship to Melbourne.
The English rectory and its neighbours are handled with no less
skill."--_National Observer._
"'Tiny Luttrell' is a most artistic story, and takes up ground on
which the author has no rival."--_Bristol Mercury._
