A RLS short story packaged here as a Penguin 60 publication.
As a short story it has all the ingredients, and so much potential, but somehow the end was a bit of a letdown. I won't ruin the plot, which is all to easy to do with a short story.
Nevertheless, the mysterious tale is set in the wilds of Scotland, features a thieving banker with a gambling problem and a beautiful daughter, Italians (presumably mafia), competitive men, who were once friends, and mysterious movements during dark nights.
Suspenseful and atmospheric writing. 3.5 stars, rounded down.
