This intriguing tale combines elements of suspense and mystery, centering on the experiences of the protagonist, Hardross Courage, who finds himself embroiled in a dangerous scenario involving a wounded man known as Leslie Guest, who believes his life is at stake. As Courage becomes increasingly entangled in a web of secrets, he must navigate threats from mysterious assailants and the enigmatic presence of a woman named Miss Van Hoyt. The opening of the novel introduces Hardross Courage as he checks into a hotel and hears a commotion outside his door, leading to an unexpected encounter with an anxious and pursued Leslie Guest.
