"[...] "Well, then he was at Northborough at that time," remarked Rothwell. "Look here, Stafford, we'd better telephone to Northborough, to his hotel. The 'Golden Apple,' wasn't it?" "No good," replied Stafford, shaking his head. "The 'Golden Apple' isn't on the 'phone—old-fashioned place. We'd better wire." "Too slow," said Rothwell. "We'll telephone to the theatre there, and ask them to step across and make inquiries. Come on!—let's do it at once." [...]".

5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. A very theatrical plot By Patto This novel, first published in 1922, is a good example of J. S. Fletcher's complex plots. The story starts with a famous actor gone missing in suspicious circumstances in northern England. But other dark deeds soon take our attention.Actors and actresses pervade the action, some good guys, some bad guys. Even the non-actors are characters, in many cases. There's the wily estate agent who knows everybody's business and seems to terrify his own employer. And the crafty poacher who lives rough on the moors but aligns himself with our upright hero. Our hero is an attractive young man of independent means who writes plays. Happily there're a lovely young lady living in a Scarhaven cottage in genteel poverty for him to fall in love with.The setting is highly dramatic. The actor Bassett Oliver was last seen in environs of Scarhaven Keep, a ruined tower on an ancient family estate. In the search for Oliver, we find ourselves on a wild and lonely coast off the North Sea. The landscapes in this novel have a thrilling, threatening beauty that forms a perfect backdrop for the mysteries unfolding.There are lots of behind-the-scenes glimpses of life among the traveling acting troupes that performed on the circuit of small towns in England in this period. And lots of dramatic scenes on land and sea to challenge our hero and heroine.I recommend the Resurrected Press edition. It's not a carelessly scanned book, but a real book with readable type, proper paragraphing and a nice little introduction.
