A weird and delicate ghost story, mingling poetic mystery with a tale of Death, a Knight, and a Lady.

H. De Vere Stacpoole's 1897 novel, by the author of 'The Blue Lagoon,' is a graceful late-Victorian supernatural romance praised for its atmosphere of poetic mystery. Refined, moody, of its era. Read it for a fin-de-siècle ghost story steeped in charm and dread from an accomplished romancer.
