Produktinformationen zu „7 best short stories by Thomas Burke / 7 best short stories Bd.94 (ePub)“
Thomas Burke's writing blends several styles to create a dramatic portrait of London. Limehouse Nights and its various sequels classified Burke as a "purveyor of melodramatic stories of lust and murder among London's lower classes".
