Sixteen short stories, including "The Spell of the Black Siren", "A String of Famous Pearls", "The League of Death", "The Forged Cheque", etc. "Mr. Dick Donovan is well known as a writer of clever detective stories. 'The Records of Vincent Trill' (Chatto) is as good as any that he has given us. Vincent Trill was no ordinary detective ... It is of course another matter whether it is desirable to encourage the public interest in the records of crime and criminals, but one can hardly blame Mr. Donovan for giving his readers what they want" (St. James's Gazette, 17th May 1899). Crown 8vo (20cm). [2],[vi],(286),[ii] + 32pp inserted advertisements dated September 1898.
