Betrayal of John Fordham

By B. L. FARJEON

"The plot is well constructed, the story is well told, and there is enough of mystery to satisfy the most exacting reader."--_Sat.u.r.day Evening Gazette_

""The Betrayal of John Fordham" is a new story by B. L. Farjeon. It is of the detective order, full of murder and innumerable wrongs that become, at length, righted, and the much abused hero comes to happiness as the curtain falls. The working out of the plot, combined with peculiar incidents makes the story worth reading, especially if one likes a detective story. Almost everyone does, for a change."--_Boston Times_.

"Running through the story are the threads of one or two affairs of the heart, which are woven into pleasant conclusions. Some of the scenes are stirringly dramatic."--_San Francisco Chronicle_.

"A new book, which, like the preceding ones from the pen of the same author, is a strong story and which promises to be extensively read, is B. L. Farjeon"s new novel, "The Betrayal of John Fordham.""--_New Haven Journal_.

"The plot is intricate and deeply involved and dramatically and skillfully worked out."--_Brooklyn Eagle_.
