It’s said that the ghost of the Black Abbot has been seen near the old abbey, but that doesn’t deter several of a nobleman’s employees from showing up to find a supposed hidden treasure. Soon, a mysterious hooded figure begins murdering those who may have figured out where the riches are hidden.

Who is the Black Abbott, what is his purpose—and how he is connected to the treasure? From a malevolent ghost to a tangled romance and a plot for revenge, The Black Abbot brings classic, non-stop Edgar Wallace thrills.

“Anyone today wishing to connect the legendary name with the master storytelling talent behind it would do well to pick up an Edgar Wallace thriller.”

Having grown up with the stories of Edgar Wallace, I gained much pleasure from this title, but it was perhaps nowadays a little dated.

An excellent book of its time.

As a huge fan of the works of Edgar Wallace I was so pleased to discover this new release. The Black Abbott was always one of my favourites. Can't wait for the release of the Terrible People. Hoping you can record plenty more. I have been waiting for these books for ages. The Fellowship of the Frog, The India Rubber Men or the Flying Squad would be amazing although I have a whole list of ones I'd love.
Thank you so much.

Huge Edgar Wallace Fan. Very Well Read.
