    About this audiobook

    Richard Horatio Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) was an English writer of 957 short stories and over 170 novels. He is widely recognized as one of the most prolific writers of his age.

    "The Secret of the Moat Farm" is Wallace's account of a real life murder mystery which he had covered as a young journalist. Camille Holland, a spinster of 56, became enamoured of an attractive scoundral named Dougal. When the two moved into the remote "Moat Farm" it was not long before Miss Holland disappeared. Dougal remained at the farm, spending Miss Holland's money and entertaining a series of mistresses... until finally suspicions were aroused.
