About the Book

One of the most convoluted web-work mysteries ever devised by the arcane mind of Harry Stephen Keeler.

Book Synopsis

"I knew full well, when the Chinaman stopped me in the street that night and coolly asked me for a light for his cigarette, that a light for his cigarette was the last thing in the world that he really wanted! I knew, in short, that he was up to something!" So begins one of the most convoluted webwork mysteries ever devised by the arcane mind of Harry Stephen Keeler. Many Keeler stories have a skull in them but in this one the skull has a starring role! And watch out for those Chinamen! [Facsimile reprint edition.]

Review Quotes

"My guiltiest pleasure is Harry Stephen Keeler. He may been the greatest bad writer America has ever produced. Or perhaps the worst great writer. I do not know. There are few faults you can accuse him of that he is not guilty of. But I love him." -- Neil Gaiman
