Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Library of the World's Best Mystery and Detective Stories
You may readily judge that Sergy's heart was very accessible to love, and, in fact, you would have rarely found him free from one of those passions on which a man's life seems to depend; but the fortunate exaltation of his sensibility was in itself a defense against excess. What his ardent soul required was another equally ardent, with which it could associate and mingle itself; and al though he thought he saw it everywhere, he had not met with it till then.
