One of Conrads short stories published in the Pension Little Black Classics series.
An enjoyable short story, first published in 1902, and yet it somehow doesn't read as dated.
There are other plot descriptions, written better than I will, and as usual with a short story it is hard to say much without spoilers!
Enjoyable writing, good plot, quick easy read.
Solid 3 stars, good without being great.
