Book Description
Trade paperback. John Vance doesnÕt have a care in the world...except, perhaps, seeing his daughter Pamela married to the right man. Father and daughter live happily at Blacon Grange until one day the post brings a letter from an anonymous writer directing Vance to kill one Martin Stone - a man of dubious character with whom Vance had once been associated. Vance decides to ignore the ludicrous missive. But a phone Õcall received shortly afterwards from Martin Stone leads John Vance into dangerous waters... The ensuing case is investigated by Curtis Burke of Scotland Yard, and Inspector Burke and his men must use all of their deductive skill to unravel a conspiracy whose roots go back to Mexico. ÔRalph TrevorÕ was the pseudonym used by James Reginald Wilmot for his numerous mystery novels. He also wrote romances under the pseudonym ÔFrances StewartÕ.

Book Description
"The White Owl," by Edmund Snell, quivers with the literary hocus pocus that affords mental relief in a materialistic age. Two adventurers, searching for an Aztec temple containing a deity, which flourished before the Spanish conquistadores overran Mexico, find it, and on opening the covering of a shaft one of them is carried down into its fathomless depths by a huge white owl. There appears to the survivor a girl, Naia, who tells him that his friend will reappear after twenty moons. The White Owl having been released, the hatred of the Aztecs for their Spanish oppressors is renewed, and a series of murders of Spaniards in various places in Europe follows, the White Owl with hideous green eyes continually appearing when the mysterious influences are at work. The vanished explorer and the girl Naia are always the instruments.
