Fergus Hume 
The Red-headed Man 

Manchester Guardian.–"A female highwayman is a somewhat daring variety in fiction of which crime and audacity is the chief merit of Mr. Fergus Hume's latest work. Mr. Hume is a clever writer in a very fertile vein." Literary World.–"In 'Claude Duval of Ninety-Five' we have a recendesence of highway robbery very skilfully contrived." Weekly Sun.–"The plot is very cleverly worked out. The book is to be heartily commended as one of its author's masterpieces." Literature.–"The story is novel, and is worked out into a present day environment with real dexterity." Yorkshire Post.–"An entertaining romance which should agree with the prevailing mood of the libraries." Observer.–"Mr. Hume's story will rank among the best of its type."
