novel."--_World._
"The writer of 'Nancy Noon' has succeeded in presenting a powerfully
written and thoroughly interesting story."--_Scotsman._

read did we find it possible to lay the book down."--_Daily Chronicle._

its style, very compelling in its claim on the attention, and not at all
likely to be soon forgotten."--_British Weekly._
"A clever book.... The situations and ensuing complications are
dramatic, and are handled with originality and daring
throughout."--_Daily News._
"Mr. Benjamin Swift has written a vastly entertaining book."--_Academy._
