Prince Zaleski and Cumming's King Monk

Step into the realm of supernatural detectives!
A collection of supernatural detective short stories by the author M.P. Shiel.
Prince Zaleski the mysterious exiled Russian, spends his time in his ruined abbey, surrounded by strange artefacts, including a partially unwrapped mummy. He solves cases mostly without even having to leave the abbey – when he "might sometimes be induced to take an absorbing interest in questions that had proved themselves too profound, or too intricate, for ordinary solution".
"Zaleski is Sherlock – demented" – HG Wells
Cumming's King Monk Shiel's The Pale Ape and Other Pulses collection presented a second extraordinary figure, Cummings King Monk who has a longer section with three component short stories that have been called Shiel's "subversive take on the crime story genre".
