About the book
The Project Gutenberg EBook of The Red House Mystery, by A. Mark comes down the stairs, warns Cayley to stand by in case he is wanted, and goes to meet his brother. Shall he bury the body in the passage and let it be thought that Mark ran away, frightened at the mere thought of his brother’s arrival? He generally gets discovered in the end; a professional criminal; perhaps not—but an amateur like Mark!
