A motley assortment of pulp magazine and newspaper fiction, plus a touch of classics. The last, and longest story, over 30,000 words, is an example of the traditional 1920s British thriller in full cry; sinister gang who meet in secret conclave wearing masks; beautiful girl in mortal peril; love at first sight, and galloping pace.
