Little is know about the author of these short stories set in colonial Ceylon, now Sri Lanka. Replete with murdering Devils, human sacrifice, torture victims, and treasure, the tales also provide a glimpse of plantation life in a far-flung province of the British Empire a hundred years ago. A rare and interesting volume.
