The Destroying Angel

The Destroying Angel By Louis Joseph Vance 1912. Vance, American screenwriter, short story writer and novelist, begins The Destroying Angel: Then I’m to understand there’s no hope for me? I’m afraid not…Greyerson said reluctantly, sympathy in his eyes. None whatever. The verdict was thus brusquely emphasized by Hartt, one of the two consulting specialists. Having spoken, he glanced at his watch, then at the face of his colleague, Bushnell, who contented himself with a tolerant waggle of his head, apparently meant to imply that the subject of their deliberations really must be reasonable: anybody who willfully insists on footing the measures of life with a defective constitution for a partner has no logical excuse for being reluctant to pay the Piper. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades.
