William le Queux's adventure-thriller "The Mysterious Three" opens with the report of a mysterious stranger, who visited Sir Charles and Lady Thorold while they were away from home.
Having returned with their daughter, Vera, and their friend, Mr. Ashton, the Thorolds' butler informs them that a gentleman named "Smithson" stopped by and describes him as looking like the man in a portrait they own. At first, they make light of the incident ... but later, Ashton finds the Thorold family has vanished!
Now Ashton must find the missing Thorolds and learn the true identity of "Smithson"!
Queux's "The Mysterious Three" has been called "a remarkable story, crowded with the most exciting situations, and bristling with crimes which only the brain of a most versatile author could conceive."
