Dead Men Tell No Tales by E.W. Hornung

Classic Crime Press presents you Dead Men Tell No Tales in a fantastic ebook edition.   Theres a hard-boiled plot that starts with a disaster at sea. Theres stolen gold and gun-play. Theres suspense, theres a good guy, some really bad guys, and at least two complex characters who contain a modern amount of both good and bad. One of whom is a dame.   The book has a beautiful language to it, and each word delicately paints the picture of every moment from his departure on the ship, to the very terrible moment his plans of a smooth voyage take a turn for the horrible.
