The Adventures of Madame Storey - Footner Hulbert
- Volume 3
'She was very tall and supremely graceful. It was impossible to think of legs in connexion with her movements. She floated into the room like a shape wafted on the breeze. She was darkly beautiful in the insolent style that causes plainer women to prim up their lips. . . .' So we are introduced to the fascinating Madame Rosika Storey, fearless and intelligent, who plays cat-and-mouse with killers, goes undercover to break up criminal gangs, and unravels deadly mysteries. Author Hulbert Footner (1879-1944) brought the excitement of the 1920s and 1930s to Madame Storey's cosmopolitan adventures, moving away from Edwardian and Victorian flavors of the mystery genre. Volume 3 includes 'The Viper,' 'The Steerers,' 'The Pot of Pansies,' 'The Legacy Hounds,' and 'The Handsome Young Men,' and an introduction by Geoffrey M. Footner.
