The Green Archer

A dead man. An arrow from nowhere. A castle whose ghost may be all too real.

Garre Castle is an ancient fortress of secret passages, forgotten dungeons, and sinister legends. Its master, Abel Bellamy, is a ruthless American millionaire who guards the castle—and his past—with equal ferocity. For centuries, local tales have told of the Green Archer, a spectral bowman condemned to haunt the battlements.

Now the Archer has returned.

When Valerie Howett comes to the neighboring Lady’s Manor searching for the truth about her mother’s disappearance, she is drawn into a web of midnight signals, hidden prisoners, unexplained deaths, and identities no one can afford to reveal. With the help of American reporter Spike Holland, she must penetrate Bellamy’s secrets before another arrow finds its mark.

First published in 1923, The Green Archer is Edgar Wallace at his fast-moving best: a wonderfully atmospheric blend of detective mystery, Gothic castle suspense, criminal conspiracy, romance, and breathless adventure.

This A17 Classic Adventure Library edition presents the complete, unabridged novel in a carefully prepared text, accompanied by fourteen newly created full-page black-and-white illustrations.

Enter Garre Castle—where every locked door conceals a secret, and the legendary archer may be the only figure standing between justice and murder.
