Good romance about the inheritance of the Belton estate. Kind of reminded me a bit of the TV show Downton Abbey and Mary's situation regarding inheritance of the property. The Belton Estate also has bits of humor thrown in, which made a lighter and more enjoyable read.

Predictable horror short story about a mysterious woman at a costume ball who is dressed in a gray nun's costume. Ok, but you can probably guess the ending.

Short story that starts out as a haunted room tale but ends as a heavy- handed sermon on not letting fear rule you. Not Wells' best effort.

Good short story about an old man recalling an incident that occurred in his youth at a military school.

Excellent Sherlock Holmes novel. Inventive and suspenseful.
