✦ Synopsis
This volume is a follow-up to our Victorian Rogues MEGAPACK™ and presents no less than 31 additional tales of Victorian-era (or close to it!) villains, rogues, thieves, and criminals. You don't have to have read the previous volume, of course, since all of these works stand alone. But if you'd rather have an A.J. Raffles or Boston Blackie as the hero or center-point of a story than Sherlock Holmes or Charlie Chan, this is definitely the ebook for you!
Included are no less than 31 classic tales — more than 600 pages:
THE NARRATIVE OF MR. JAMES RIGBY, by Arthur Morrison
THE CASE OF JANISSARY, by Arthur Morrison
THE CASE OF "THE MIRROR OF PORTUGAL," by Arthur Morrison
THE CASE OF MR. LOFTUS DEACON, by Arthur Morrison
OLD CATER'S MONEY, by Arthur Morrison
HOW DON Q. STOOD AT BAY, by K. and Hesketh Prichard
THE TREASURE OF FRANCHARD, by Robert Louis Stevenson
MR. CLACKWORTHY GOES TO JAIL, by Christopher B. Booth
Plus 12 adventures...
