About this ebook

William Le Queux's novel, 'The Four Faces', follows Michael Berrington, a quiet bachelor living in London, who becomes intrigued by the mysterious Gastrell after overhearing a conversation at his club. As Berrington's fiancé befriends a wealthy widow with ties to Gastrell, he finds himself embroiled in a dangerous plot involving sensational robberies, brutal murders, and even mind control. The story is told from Berrington's perspective, a seemingly ordinary man pulled into a world of kidnapping, disguises, coded messages, and Scotland Yard investigations. With each twist and turn, Berrington becomes more entangled in the mystery, leading to a heart-pounding conclusion that will leave readers on the edge of their seats.

William Le Queux

William Le Queux (1864-1927) was an Anglo-French journalist, novelist, and radio broadcaster. Born in London to a French father and English mother, Le Queux studied art in Paris and embarked on a walking tour of Europe before finding work as a reporter for various French newspapers. Towards the end of the 1880s, he returned to London where he edited Gossip and Piccadilly before being hired as a reporter for The Globe in 1891. After several unhappy years, he left journalism to pursue his creative interests. Le Queux made a name for himself as a leading writer of popular fiction with such espionage thrillers as The Great War in England in 1897 (1894) and The Invasion of 1910 (1906). In addition to his writing, Le Queux was a notable pioneer of early aviation and radio communication, interests he maintained while publishing around 150 novels over his decades long career.
