Unfortunately, the dying man's conniving housekeeper and butler, already planning murder to get the money themselves, overhear her and begin plotting her demise. Set in 19th-century New York, this mystery begins when a Frenchwoman shows up at the home of one of Napoleon's former marshals.
The parts may be greater than the whole, but Fletcher Markle’s The Man With a Cloak is an enjoyable melodrama teeming with Gothic noir themes and thoroughly inspired by a certain mid-nineteenth century poet and suspense writer.
