Adventure, romance, and fear. All rolled up into this neat little book by William Le Queux. One of my favorite parts was the exciting car chase that took place between Studland, Dorset across southern England, and into Cornwall. It give some idea of what car travel was like back in the old days. Such a chase could have taken place anywhere. Le Queux's choice of this location gives one pause to look the area up on Google Earth or Bing Maps to follow the route. The protagonist can't believe that his long last love showed up only to be snatched away by a suspected criminal. Our hero finds himself not only chasing across southern England, but also through France and Italy. He discovers secrets concerning his lost sweetheart that nearly drive him mad. As daring as he is, he finds himself in predicaments that he questions his dauntlessness. As does the reader. But, both hero and reader hold on as the story progresses. The author wrote certain passages that make it easy to feel you are right there in stealth with our courageous lead character. (Amazon)
