Prince Zaleski

Prince Zaleski introduces an eccentric, decadent prince who solves crimes from a ruined abbey stuffed with curios, rarely needing to leave his cushions in order to see. M. P. Shiel’s three fin-de-siècle detective tales set a rival to Holmes in a register of opium, erudition and weird deduction. The mysteries are ingenious; the atmosphere is the true intoxicant.
