Excerpt: "There was something so sinister about the whole thing that Wendover rushed in and stood there, with startled eyes. For there, behind that screen of greenery, lay the dead body of a man in evening dress. He lay there with his eyes turned upwards, lay there with a cruel gash in the centre of his dazzling expanse of shirt front, on which the crimson stain stood out vividly. And standing over him, frozen with horror, was the girl in the red dress." Frederick White (1859–1935), mostly known for mysteries, is considered also as one of the pioneers of the spy story.
