by Arthur Gask ...

Series series Gilbert Larose
PROFESSOR PARIS STARBANK, for so he called himself, had a long string of letters after his name, but they did not indicate diplomas which had been granted to him by any recognised university or college and were quite worthless as far as his ability in any walk of life was concerned. Their meaning was of course, unintelligible to most people, but they meant that he belonged to the Society of ... Read more

The Lonely House

by Arthur Gask ...

Series series Gilbert Larose
The detective had been watching for four days before he realised suddenly that the house was inhabited.It was a sinister-looking house that stood alone upon a lonely shore in South Australia, and it lay by the margin of the waves in a little sandy cove between the dip of two high hills.It was a place where few men came, for it was cut off from the distant townships by long, barren wastes of rock ...

The Silent Dead

by Arthur Gask ...

Series series Gilbert Larose
I have just seen my babies put to bed and made cosy for the night. I know I could not have two better nurses looking after them, but my own childhood was so hard and lacking in affection that I am perhaps over-anxious to be sure that my own children do not want for love and tenderness. My dear husband laughs at me, but I know it pleases him that, with all my social duties, the children always come ... Read more

The Poisoned Goblet

“We may say what we will, Mr. Larose,” remarked the thin scholarly looking man in a rather regretful tone, “but evil in a jeweled setting is less repugnant to the human mind, than when met with in sordid surroundings, and crime among the well-to-do is more intriguing than breaches of the law among the lower classes.”“That is quite true, Mr. Jones,” replied the smiling young man opposite to him. ...
