In the tradition of the old "Ace Doubles" (flip one book over to
read the second title), here is the tenth Wildside Double:
VALDEMAR'S DAUGHTER: A ROMANCE OF MESMERISM, by Brian
Stableford
Following the sad demise of Ernest Valdemar, as related in the
story by Edgar Allan Poe, his mortal remains are sent to his
daughter in Paris--but go astray--and detective Auguste Dupin must
track them down. The Comte de Saint-Germain seems implicated in the
mystery. Meanwhile, the great writer Balzac lies at death's door,
convinced that only Valdemar's body can save him. Will Dupin thwart
his adversary in the nick of time?
THE MAD TRIST: A ROMANCE OF BIBLIOMANIA, by Brian Stableford
The Comte de Saint-Germain has come into possession of The Mad
Trist, the book from which Edgar Allan Poe and Roderick Usher read
aloud before the collapse recorded in "The Fall of the House of
Usher." He intends it as a gift to detective Auguste Dupin, but
Dupin's friend, Richard Carstairs, cannot deliver the volume
immediately. Richard is unintimidated by the prospect of reading a
supposedly cursed book--after all, Dupin has a whole shelf full of
them A classic tale of horror.
