LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS

"You won't improve his chances by keeping anything back."
I saw a bedizened beauty go mad before my eyes.
I drove Delavoye before me.
A handsome, sinister creature, in a brown flowing wig and raiment as fine as any on the walls.
Trying to tug the fierce moustache out of his mild face.
A heavy blackthorn held in murderous poise.
His thin arms locked round the neck of the young nurse.
Delavoye fired over my head.
