There was something sinister about him, too vague to put into actual words. Even his romantic interest in Ingrid, the co-heir to the family estate, was unlike the man–he'd never shown a real interest in a woman before. ...

It would be a hard man indeed who could read the adventures of his Underground Diner – which take up much of the last half of the book and...
