The three novels contained herein, the authorship of which, in one way or another, was attributed to the fin-de-siecle stage-star Selina Dolaro (1849-1889), were in fact written by the English polymath Edward Heron-Allen (1861-1943), in the late 1880s, when he was sojouring in the United States.
In The Princess Daphne the experiments of an American mesmerist and his dying lover cause havoc for a collective of struggling artists half a world away, in Notting Hill. In Bella-Demonia, a fast-paced tale of espionage during the Great Game, a disgraced British operative must contend with card sharps, femme fatales and the Russian secret police in order to regain his lost honour. And in the final entry, The Vengeance of Maurice Denalguez, cruelty and deception abound as a society beauty and an enigmatic nobleman make an innocent couple’s marriage the battleground for their feuds.
Recommended for those who enjoy the work of Arthur Conan Doyle and H.G. Wells, these three novels will delight fans of period fiction and weird tales alike.
