Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Supreme Crime
Gregor Fetrow's brow cleared as he stood there gazing before him, and when he turned from the window it was with a more resolute movement, as though. The syringa scent had been a strong wine, drowning the doubts which, a minute before, still disturbed him. He went back again to the glass and finished settling his cravat, gave one touch of the brush to his black Sunday coat (and yet this was Wednesday), and, picking up his best hat, left the house with the step of a man whose mind is made up.
