The Mystery of The Sea.
London: Heinemann, 1902. [Strange Tale] FIRST UK EDITION, first impression. Octavo (19 x 13cm), pp.xii; 498; [2]; [30], ads. Publishers pictorial blue cloth, blocked in gilt and colour. Contents clean, edges a little dusty/toned, text block shaken within the case (paper joints cracked), front panel and cover extremities a little rubbed. Very good indeed. Obviously anything written by Stoker will be overshadowed by the spectre of the great Count, but this tale of Armada treasure, ancient curses, secret codes and shipwreck is an absolute cracker.
