- The style ofThe Day of Temptationis very melodramatic and overwritten – adjectives and adverbs abound to the confusion of the reader. The book is very much set in high society and sometimes reminds me of the immortal Daisy Ashford – I’m sure books like this were among her inspiration.

- There was a Victorian / Edwardian fascination with evil geniuses. Professor Moriarty, Fu Manchu, Count Fosco, Dracula, Dr. Nicola – they and many others were hiding in the shadows, using their magnetism to persuade others to their will and their significant mental gifts for evil purposes. This is an exciting story for those who like the somewhat predictable traditions of late Victorian history.

- Women are forced to marry and forced to marry for money, not love. As in all her books, the basis is a mystery, and, like everything I read, for the reader, the screaming is obvious what is actually happening. But this does not detract from the expectations of history. The characters are well drawn, each with a distinctive style.

- The silence of the pine woods lay like a brooding cloak about the soul of Bristol McGrath. The black shadows seemed fixed, immovable as the weight of superstition that overhung this forgotten back-country. Vague ancestral dreads stirred at the back of McGrath’s mind; for he was born in the pine woods, and sixteen years of roaming about the world had not erased their shadows.

- Harrison is a brawny police detective who patrols the unquiet slums and dives of River Street, in an unnamed port city where the sun never shines. But REH’s stories were far-removed from the „mean streets” of Hammett’s and Raymond Chandler’s stories in Black Mask. Like Skull-Face they owe more to Sax Rohmer – and to REH’s own contemporary horror stories.
