The story begins with the sudden death of a wealthy businessman, which Tcheriapin claims to have predicted. This leads to a series of events that draw the attention of the police, who suspect Tcheriapin of foul play. However, the hypnotist's powers and influence over his wealthy clients make it difficult for the authorities to pin anything on him. Meanwhile, a young journalist named Paul Harley becomes intrigued by Tcheriapin's story and sets out to investigate him. As he delves deeper into the hypnotist's past, Harley uncovers a web of deceit, betrayal, and murder that threatens to destroy everything Tcheriapin has built.

On the landing above a gas lamp was burning, and opening a door immediately facing the stair the stranger conducted me into a barely furnished and untidy room.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
