The White Rider
Leslie Charteris wrote several books
before he hit the big time, and a few non-Saint books
after. Leslie's second book, published 1928.
Blurb: When Bernard Seldon king of illicit drug
traffickers came to a violent end, he left a
million pounds which only his stepdaughter knew where to
find. A Transatlantic criminal heard of this hidden
fortune, and proceeded to try his luck in the hunt. Which
is why the traditional ghost of Sancreed, The White
Rider, rode again. . . . Those who enjoyed in "X
Esquire" the unconventional methods of Bill Kennedy,
that amiable and herculean detective, will find him at
his best in this vigorous story, packed with crisp
dialogue and breathlessly exciting incident. "The
White Rider" is a thriller that is
"different" right up to the strange whirlwind dénouement.
