Edition: New York: Doubleday, Page & Company, 1924. First Edition.

Speaking of murder—Mrs. Belloc Lowndes (author of "The Lodger," one of the great murder novels in the language, and out of print, I believe—the black shame of it!—Mrs. Belloc Lowndes has written in "The Terriford Mystery" a novel not up to her best, but far better than nearly anything else of the kind in the past two or three years. It is the story of a poisoning case, and the author has studied criminal lore to advantage; her medico-legal knowledge would, I fancy, pass examination by experts. —The Outlook, 2 June 1924
