The story is set in France, 1805. Conan Doyle's recurring character Brigadier Gerard appears as a major character in this short novel, which deals with the return of an exiled French aristocrat. In a half morocco binding with marbled paper covered boards. Externally, sound with slight shelfwear and bumping to head and tail of spine.
