The Melody of Death
Gilbert Standerton, recently disinherited and newly married to a high-society wife, finds his comfortable world upended. Forced to abandon his Foreign Office post, he plunges into the volatile world of the stock market, developing a curious fascination with a notorious gang of safe-crackers. As his nights grow longer and his interest in a specific, haunting melody intensifies, his wife grows increasingly concerned. Is Gilbert merely pursuing a new career path, or has his desperation led him down a far darker road, blurring the lines between ambition and outright criminality?
