Today, the concept of the supernatural detective has been extensively explored in media like film, television, and books. However, renowned writer of "weird" fiction Algernon Blackwood was one of the first to broach this idea with his highly original character, John Silence. Silence is a brilliant physician whose willingness to delve into the matters dealing with the occult and supernatural leads him on dozens of adventures. This mini-collection is a perfect introduction to the Silence stories.
