Gale Warning

Jonathan Mansel, one of Dornford Yates’ most popular characters, heads a small private organisation dedicated to the detection of serious crime ‘by methods sadly unavailable to the regular police’. An aristocratic member of his team is murdered and the avengers set out in pursuit of the killer, in a tale of ‘violence and a measure of sublimated sex’. Caricatured villains, a page-turning plot and some good jokes – in short, classic Yates.

Jonathan Mansel, unul dintre cele mai populare personaje ale lui Dornford Yates, conduce o mica organizatie privata dedicata detectarii infractiunilor grave „prin metode din pacate indisponibile politiei obisnuite”. Un membru aristocratic al echipei sale este ucis si razbunatorii au pornit in urmarirea criminalului, intr-o poveste despre „violenta si o masura de sex sublimat”.
