About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Quintus Oakes: A Detective Story, by Charles Ross Jackson. There have been a series of assaults at the manor house, one sending the mistress of the house insane with fear, another escalating to murder. There are reports of a tread on the stairs and shady figures disappearing from view. The servants blame the supernatural, but Quintus Oakes gets to the bottom of the mystery. (Summary by Lynne Thompson)
