The Shrieking Pit Illustrated


Book Description

Colwyn had never seen anything quite so eccentric in a public room as the behaviour of the young man breakfasting alone at the alcove table in the bay embrasure, and he became so absorbed in watching him that he permitted his own meal to grow cold, impatiently waving away the waiter who sought with obtrusive obsequiousness to recall his wandering attention by thrusting the menu card before him.




The Shrieking Pit (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Shrieking Pit As the scenes of this story are laid in a part of Nor folk which will be readily identified by many Norfolk people, it is perhaps well to state that all the personages are fictitious, and that the Norfolk police officials who appear in the book have no existence outside these pages. They and the other characters are drawn entirely from imagination. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
