Description

Finally available, a high quality book of the original classic edition of The Daffodil Mystery.

This is a new and freshly published edition of this culturally important work by Edgar Wallace, which is now, at last, again available to you.

Enjoy this classic work today. These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside The Daffodil Mystery:

Here is a girl, highly respected by all her companions and consequently a great influence on their morals, who, as I have reason to believe, has steadily and persistently falsified my books, taking money from the firm, and at the same time has secured the goodwill of all with whom she has been brought into contact.

...Lyne, and if you will be advised by me, you will drop this stupid scheme for vengeance which your hurt vanity has suggested-it is the clumsiest kind of frame up that was ever invented-and also you will go and apologise to the young lady, whom, I have no doubt, you have grossly insulted.

...Twice had Sam gone down for a short term, and once for a long term of imprisonment, and on each occasion Thornton Lyne had made a parade of collecting the returned wanderer, driving him home, giving him breakfast and a great deal of worldly and unnecessary advice, and launching him forth again upon the world with ten pounds-a sum just sufficient to buy Sam a new kit of burglars tools.

...But The Master-this time he spoke of the great Master, Confucius-has said that all greatness comes from small things, and perhaps some small-piece man will cut off the head of some big-piece man, and then they will call you to find the murderer.

...He walked about the room as though he was looking for something, and again I was afraid that I should be discovered after all, but by and by he went out and came back with a small suit-case.
