The capital &ndash, indiscreet letters which would make the likes of all sorts of distinguished English people &ndash, is kept secret in a safe behind a black cabinet. Cousin Dane whispers the combination to Chloe and straight away dies. But Dane&rsquo,s big mistake was to have accomplices, and poor Chloe falls into their hands. They will stop at nothing, not even murder, to keep their secrets&hellip,The Black Cabinetáwas originally published in 1925.
