An excellent tale by Michael Arlen. It's a longish story and so it will be told in four parts.
Arlen has a very sly and witty sense of humour in this story but that doesn't detract from the chilling descriptions of murder and references to Jack The Ripper; A name that still give us Londoners the shivers. But will you guess the twist? Keep tuned daily to listen to how Arlen's mind manipulates the story.

This chilling tale is the stuff of nightmares. Indeed Smith dreamt this one night and quickly wrote it down for us all to enjoy. Not much is known about Smith other than he was born in Liverpool in 1881, served in WW1 and that he lived in Scotland. I would love to know more about him so if you have any clues, contact me.
