Beschreibung
From the masterful mind of Edgar Wallace comes a riveting collection of short stories that will leave you spellbound. In the title story "For Information Received," a down-on-his-luck carpenter hatches a clever scheme, only to find that his mark is shrewder than he appears. This classic page-turner serves up intrigue and irony in equal measure.
The other 8 stories in this collection are equally captivating, including:
"Snares of Paris": A soldier returns from war to discover his fiancée's shocking secret.
"A Business Training": A naive young woman takes on her scheming half-siblings to protect her father.
"Miss Prentiss Tells a Lie": A woman's deception could cost an innocent man his life.
"A Priestess of Osiris":
Ancient rituals collide with modern life in London, with disastrous results.
