At The Villa Rose is a classic mystery novel written by A. E. W. Mason. The story is set in France and revolves around the murder of a wealthy American named Mrs. Harriet Smith. The investigation is led by Inspector Hanaud, a highly skilled detective who is determined to solve the case. The prime suspect is a charming and mysterious man named Jack Knox, who was last seen with the victim. As the investigation unfolds, Hanaud uncovers a web of lies, deceit, and betrayal that leads him to the stunning truth. The book is full of twists and turns and keeps the reader guessing until the very end. Mason’s writing style is engaging and the characters are well-developed, making this novel a must-read for fans of classic mystery and detective fiction.''They came to me a little while ago in that cupboard there--Adele and the old woman Jeanne. They made me get up. They told me they were going to take me away. They brought my clothes and dressed me in everything I wore when I came, so that no single trace of me might be left behind. Then they tied me.'' She tore off her gloves and showed them her lacerated wrists. ''I think they meant to kill me--horribly.'' And she caught her breath and whimpered like a child. Her spirit was broken.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
