Karl Grier
Karl Grier is a big, hearty man of the world, known in London, Edinburgh, Paris and New York, who for several years possessed a power that men of science refuse to believe in: a faculty of the mind that let him see and act at a distance. His biographer sets down the episodes of those years, from an affair in a tea garden and the saving of a man named Constantine to the finding of Maggie Hutchinson and an encounter with a shark, while explaining why the full facts have never been made public. Louis Tracy, a prolific English writer of adventure and mystery, published the novel in 1906, and it is an early example of the psychic thriller. It is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, with the first chapter free.
