"[...]no other mode of entrance, for a high wall ran completely across the narrow neck that joined the headland to the main shore, and all other sides of the precipitous cliff ran straight down to the sea. From where they sat the group could discern the motor road as far as the lodge; and here and there above that could be glimpsed the narrow, tortuous path that led on to the house.[...]".

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Pennington Wise, Detective By drkhimxz Not quite as sophisticated a detective as Fleming Stone, Pennington Wise, nonetheless, is a Whiz Bang Super Sleuth, when all else has failed to unravel a really knotty problem. Of course, the prolific Carolyn Wells, had other sleuths in her stable, but these are the two most memorable. Though close to a century old, this mystery still more than holds its own with the average locked room stories of today, and is inferior to relatively few. Naturally, there is the inaccessible old New England house (atmospherically similar to the English Mansion), from which there is only one known exit to the mainland. A small group from this house, together with some guests from the nearby Village, is on that lone exit road, on the way to a luncheon picnic, when the beautiful young daughter (and only child) of the Establishment, informs the others that she has forgotten her camera and must go back to the house to get it. When she does not return after a decent interval, her father goes back to get her. Neither returns. After another interlude, one of the young guests runs back to the house to urge both to return before it becomes too late for the picnic proceed. Astonishment and Dismay. The Father has been shot dead and the daughter is nowhere to be found. Where can she be? There is only one known exit from the home on its promontory; and that was straddled by the picnic group. There is no other way down from the rocks on which the house rests, any effort to descend from the pinnacle to the sea below means instant death.Local law is stymied. Distraught, the widow seeks the help of the greatest detective in the United States, Pennington Wise. From there, the story is suitably baffling. Wells is a gifted writer you can trust to keep you in suspense and to give you much more than one would expect at these prices. Give her a try.
