In \"Exchange is Robbery,\" Marsh's recurring charcters and jewellers to the aristocracy, Messrs. Golden and Ruby, discover they have been the victims of a massive jewel fraud. \"The Haunted Chair,\" one of Marsh's strangest and most unnerving stories of horror, features an old chair at a gentlemen's club, whose owner seems capable of returning from the grave. In \"A Relic of the Borgias,\" an ancient cameo ring appears to possess the power to kill. Other stories, like \"Em\" and \"Nelly,\" reveal Marsh's softer side as a romantic novelist. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new edition, the first in over a century, features the unabridged text of the original work, along with an introduction by Prof. Paul Fox and a reproduction of the impossibly rare jacket cover of the original six shilling edition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Marsh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1934555835\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781934555835\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Valancourt Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/05\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.55d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Richard Marsh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43937554596095,"sku":"9781934555835","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_7dfbd247-d503-4039-83d1-fee1f943b3d1.jpg?v=1681430751","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/between-the-dark-and-the-richard-marsh-9781934555835","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
