Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A private river barge, furnished like a salon, becomes a meeting place for people who have survived the kind of trouble no one believes. A rich host brings them aboard and demands discretion, certain their odd histories share a hidden source. One by one, guests tell what happened to them: violent crimes, sudden disappearances, and brushings with the uncanny-vampire rumors, strange rebirth claims, and a jewel that seems to carry bad luck. Every account feels like a separate case, yet small details echo across the stories. As the nights pass, the links tighten. Clues cross from one tale to the next, pushing the group toward a single explanation, and a final reckoning for whoever set the pattern in motion. …

Paperback. Condizione: Brand New. 350 pages. 8.75x5.75x0.79 inches. This item is printed on demand.

FIRST ENGLISH EDITION, very faint spotting to prelims receding into text, one leaf nicked at leading edge, pp. [ii], 333, 12 [Publisher's catalogue], crown 8vo, original tan cloth, lettered in black to upper board and backstrip, the latter with a touch of creasing to cloth at foot, slight lean to spine, corners gently bumped, edges and endpapers very faintly spotted, tail edge roughtrimmed, the front hinge a little tender, good. The English edition is scarcer than its American predecessor - it dates from the first phase of Mills & Boon's list, when the publisher's profile was more diverse (perhaps unsustainably so, judging by the list at rear) than the romance fiction upon which it concentrated from the 1930s onwards. They had published the author's novel 'The Scarlet Tanager' the year before. Tyson hailed from Philadelphia, and established himself as a journalist in New York. The present work is a collection of stories linked by their telling aboard the titular vessel, which carries a party, each of whom 'bears a title that is suggested either by his story or some personal characteristic': the Homicidal Professor, the Whispering Gentleman, the Nervous Physician, the Hypochondriacal Painter, the One-eyed Duck Hunter, the Veiled Aeronaut (the sole female traveller), the Sentimental Gargoyle, the Decapitated Man, the Fugitive Bridegroom. The stories generally handle supernatural themes, including curses, seances, vampirism, etc.…
