A Pleasant Evening is a short story written by Robert W. Chambers. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the protagonist, a young man named Jack, as he attends a dinner party hosted by his friend, Mr. Van Brunt. The party is held in a grand mansion and is attended by a group of wealthy and influential people. As the evening progresses, Jack begins to feel uneasy and senses that something is not quite right. He soon discovers that the guests are not what they seem and that the party has a sinister purpose. The story is a blend of horror and mystery, and it explores themes of deception, corruption, and the dangers of social climbing. Chambers' writing style is atmospheric and evocative, and he builds tension and suspense throughout the story. A Pleasant Evening is a classic example of Chambers' work and is highly recommended for fans of horror and mystery fiction.In the Morgue--have you read the morning papers? No? Ah, --as you very rightly observe you are too busy to read the morning papers. Young men must learn industry first, of course, of course. What you are to do is this: the San Francisco police have sent out an alarm regarding the disappearance of a Miss Tufft--the millionaire's daughter, you know.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
