The best in the world, they say."" A sort of reluctant admiration showed in Van Blarcom's face. ""There isn't any one that can get him; he does what he wants, goes where he likes--the United States, England, France, Russia--and always gets away safe. You'd think he was a conjurer to read what he does sometimes. A whole country will be looking for him--by Marion Polk Angellotti.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
