Publisher's summary

In 1920s France, the king of detectives takes on a new batch of baffling cases in a series of traditional crime adventure thrillers.

What is the secret of Ker-Yvette House?

Up and coming artist Jean Lachesnaye lives an idyllic life with his wife Yvette and infant son in Ker-Yvette, his villa on Brittany's Quiberon coast. But when a convivial dinner party gives way to a night of supernatural chaos, the dream begins to unravel. His servants abandon him, and during the course of a second nightmarish evening of ghostly incidents, his baby son vanishes, replaced by a sickly child at death's door.

His child stolen, his wife driven insane, and his whole life in tatters, Lachesnaye is desperate. But fortuitously a private investigator from Paris is on holiday in the region....
Chantecoq. King of detectives, master of disguise.

Cutting short his holiday, France's greatest bloodhound swings into action with his faithful secretary Météor. To unravel the mystery of this haunted house, and to reunite a fractured family.

Far from Paris, Chantecoq calls on all his skill, theatricality, and daring, in this fast-paced and witty adventure full of smugglers' passages, shocking betrayals, and all-conquering love.

First published in France in 1929 (as La Maison Hantée), this new English translation is part of the Further Exploits of Chantecoq series, which sees the secret agent and expert spy catcher of Chantecoq and the Aubry Affair reborn as the greatest private detective of his age.
