Henry’s vocation is being a husband. First he woos. Then he weds. Then he kills…
Classic crime from one of the greats of the Detection Club


When he falls in love with orphan Sarah, Henry takes her to a lonely cottage and her initial happiness at being with him soon gives way to some uncomfortable suspicions. But will anyone reach the isolated spot before Henry deems her a little too inquisitive for her own good?
