With the help of his friend, the eccentric detective Mr. Knox, Harley must race against time to unravel the mystery of the Stradivarius and uncover the truth behind its theft. Packed with suspense, action, and a cast of unforgettable characters, ""The Secret of the Stradivarius"" is a gripping read that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page.Seeing me turn towards him, he sprang from his seat, and before I could speak, snatched the fiddle from my hands, replacing it at once in its case; then closing the cover, he heaved a deep sigh of relief. I had no time to entreat, remonstrate, or resist; but as he took the fiddle from me, all wish to distinguish myself in a line that was not my own left me, and I almost laughed aloud at the folly and presumption of which I had been mentally guilty. Yet it was strange -- very strange.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
