Publisher's Synopsis
The 13th volume in the ongoing series of Zenith versus Sexton Blake omnibuses is an unusual one, in that Zenith is featured in only one of the four stories contained within it, and his appearance in that story is somewhat peripheral.These four stories tell of The Black Trinity, a secret and particularly brutal criminal gang, that pushes Sexton Blake to the very brink of ruination. Zenith recounts, in first person, the initial chapters of the second instalment. The author, Anthony Skene, is at the height of his powers in these tales; delivering, in his terse, succinct style, four thrillers that twist and turn and frequently surprise: THE COMING OF THE BLACK TRINITY, in which Blake's investigation of a murder sets him on the trail of one of the most dangerous criminal gangs he's ever faced.THE TRAIL OF THE NAMELESS THREE, in which Zenith witnesses a remarkable act of deception.SEXTON BLAKE-SUSPECT! in which Sexton Blake's reputation is tarnished.THE CASE OF THE PHANTOM HEAD! in which the head of the Black Trinity is finally exposed
