_d._ THE LITERARY WORLD.--"The story is vigorously told, his struggles, his success and his love affairs are vividly described, while a strong religious tone pervades the book." AN ENEMY HATH DONE THIS. 3_s._, 6_d._ Is a story in almost a new vein for Mr. Hocking. He has written of Cornwall before, but never such a story of plot and counterplot, mystery and adventure, so deftly intermingled as this. MARIE CONNOR LEIGHTON HER CONVICT HUSBAND. 6_s._ Although Mrs. Leighton's work is often spoken of as "melodramatic," it is of the kind that one enthuses over by reason of its emotional interest and unusual realism. DUCKS AND DRAKES. 6_s._ A tale comparable to "Convict 99" in its actuality and holding interest. THE MISSING MISS RANDOLPH. 6_s._ Marie C. Leighton has done full justice to her reputation as a writer of highly sensational and dramatic fiction. THE TRIANGLE. 6_s._ THE COMMENTATOR.--"Altogether a most powerful and well-written novel; and one likely to maintain a permanently conspicuous position upon every library list." BLACK SILENCE. 6_s._ THE FINANCIAL TIMES.--"With each new production Mrs. Leighton contrives to add to her reputation as a writer of sensational fiction, but we doubt if any of her previous efforts, not excepting the famous 'Convict 99,' can claim equality in this respect with 'Black Silence.'" GERALDINE WALTON--WOMAN. 6_s._ A fine novel of the "Convict 99" type. EDGAR WALLACE GREY TIMOTHY. 6_s._ DAILY NEWS AND LEADER.--"Mr. Wallace has written one of the most exciting and sensational stories we have read for some time." THE PEOPLE OF THE RIVER. 6_s._, and 6_d._ THE GENTLEMAN'S JOURNAL.--"There is masculine virility in every line, and from first to last our attention is closely gripped; a grand book, unaffected and sincere." THE RIVER OF STARS. 6_s._, and 6_d._ Another of Mr. Edgar Wallace's strenuous tales of crime and adventure. THE FOURTH PLAGUE. 6_s._ THE FINANCIAL TIMES.--"This is a novel abounding in excitement and fascinating throughout." A DEBT DISCHARGED. 6_s._ There is no lack of excitement in this brightly-written novel, which holds the attention and interest of the reader to the end. LINDSAY RUSSELL SOULS IN PAWN. 6_s._ MORNING POST.--"The characters are drawn with sincerity and vigour; the narrative holds attention at every stage." THE YEARS OF FORGETTING. 6_s._ Nearly 30
