books0977: Fingers of Fear. J. U. Nicolson. New York: Covici-Friede Publishers, (1937). First edition. Original dust jacket by Arthur Hawkins Jr. “A dark tale of the mystery and horror that gathered over the vast pile of gables that was Ormesby, the ancestral home of the Ormes family, lost in one of the wildest and most isolated reaches of the Berskshires. Recluses in the great mansion, guarded by a pack of ferocious dogs, the family jealously nursed its secret. Gray, was at home with the ghosts, even jested about them with a kind of macabre humor.” -- source link
