The Mysterious Three
1917
When Mr. Smithson appears at Houghton Park bearing the face of a man dead for thirty years, Sir Charles Thorold's family begins to unravel. A butler is found drowned in the lake. The Thorolds vanish into the night. Standing in the wreckage is Richard Ashton, drawn into the mystery by his love for Vera Thorold, a woman who guards her family's secrets with desperate ferocity. Le Queux spins a deliciously atmospheric Edwardian thriller where every shadow conceals a motive and every whispered conversation hints at scandal. The story blends gothic menace with pulse-quickening romance, exploring what happens when the past refuses to stay buried and love blooms in the crosshairs of danger. For readers who crave mysteries wrapped in fog, family skeletons rattling in closets, and heroes who fall for women with dangerous secrets.
