This is a pre-1923 historical reproduction that was curated for
quality. Quality assurance was conducted on each of these books in
an attempt to remove books with imperfections introduced by the
digitization process. Though we have made best efforts - the books
may have occasional errors that do not impede the reading
experience. We believe this work is culturally important and have
elected to bring the book back into print as part of our continuing
commitment to the preservation of printed works worldwide.
Any reasonable summary of this book's plot would give away too much
of the mystery it describes, so suffice it to say that it is a
definite 'page-turner.' Right from the first chapter, when we learn
about the mysterious recently-turned-millionaire Fenwick being
strangely horrified by what he sees in a small silver box he finds
on his dinner-table, we learn that he may not be what he appears to
be, and that his lovely daughter may have a mysterious past of her
own. The main characters of the story are a wealthy lawyer named
Jim Gurdon, and his world-travelling, tanned, adventurous friend
Gerald Venner, who amazes Gurdon and the readers with his own story
about the alleged millionaire Fenwick, his daughter, and some other
noteworthy characters.
