From the 15-minute summary · Key idea 1
A world of grand European settings
MacGrath wrote in the years when Americans read eagerly about Europe. Hotels, railway carriages, palaces and city streets were the stage for adventure, and readers could travel without leaving home.
In novels of this type, place is half the pleasure. Each new city brings a fresh mood, a new danger and a new chance for the leading pair to meet or part.
