Book Description
The Silent House (1899) is a mystery novel by Fergus Hume. Although not as successful as The Mystery of a Hansom Cab (1886), an immediate bestseller for Hume, The Silent House is a gripping novel with an atmospheric intensity and tightly wound mystery worthy of the best of Victorian fiction. From an author whose work inspired Arthur Conan Doyle, The Silent House is a story of murder with a haunting, original conclusion. At twenty-five, Lucian Denzil is at the very beginning of his career as a barrister. Settling into a serious life, he rents a modest home in Pimlico on Geneva Square. Although he endeavors to focus and live only for his work, Lucian cannot help but notice the stories told by neighbors and servants about No. 13, a home near his own on the square. Decades prior to his settling in Pimlico, No. 13, now known as “the silent house,” was the site of a gruesome murder. Over the years, it had gone unoccupied and fallen into general disrepair. In 1895, a quiet, reclusive man named Mark Berwin moved into the home, where he lived alone, and to which he could not infrequently be seen returning in the dead of night in a drunken, disturbed state. One night, while walking through Geneva Square to his own home, Lucian encounters Berwin who, intoxicated and confused, requires the young man’s assistance. Helping the older gentleman make his way to No. 13, Lucian feels a growing unease, a sense of something that will lead him not only to the heart of a local mystery, but into the depths of the silent house itself. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Fergus Hume’s The Silent House is a classic of English mystery and detective fiction reimagined for modern readers.

Book Description
Murder had been done long ago in one of its empty, dusty rooms -- and it was since then that the victim walked, it was said. Lights had been seen flitting, window to window -- and the apparition of an old woman in brocaded silk appeared . . .The house at No. 13 stands empty and desolate, despite the cheerful neatness of everything else on Geneva Square. People speak of it in whispers, with daunted looks: for No. 13 is haunted -- having stood empty for over twenty years. They call it the Silent House of Pimlico.Yet how silent can it be -- for now when someone dares to search it, top to bottom, he is found stone-cold dead on the floor -- with a knife in his heart!Fergus Hume (1859-1932) was author of novels of mystery and detection including bestselling The Mystery of a Hansom Cab.
