Douglas Fairfax has always yearned for adventure, which is why he relishes the opportunity to be taken on as ship’s doctor aboard the Seeker. But Doctor Fairfax is in for a more macabre voyage than he bargained for, as he discovers when a small pleasure craft, the ’Liza Jane is found adrift – its only occupant dead from a stab wound. Who is the dead man? And how is he related to the ship’s Captain? And could there be a connection to an anarchist plot to blow up the Houses of Parliament?

Turning detective and continuing his investigations on land, Fairfax’s sleuthing leads his to a gloomy cliff-top house, where he must untangle a complex web of romance and intrigue…

Originally published in 1895, this is a fast-paced late-Victorian detective story, from the author of The Mystery of a Hansom Cab.
