The Iron Gates

Lucille Morrow was blessed -- a beautiful woman with a devoted husband. One day a mysterious messenger delivered a package, and suddenly Lucille Morrow was gone. Dominated by fear, she committed herself into an asylum. Searching for the cause, Inspector Sands follows a long trail which takes him to an abyss of horror, murder and retribution the likes of which he's never seen.

Memorable

I last read this around 55 years ago. It fascinated and disturbed me-it was probably one of the first adult books I ever read. I hadn't thought of it in many years but it suddenly popped in my head one day. I debated whether to use a credit on it but I'm so glad I did! It was almost shocking how well I remembered it-not just the story but exact phrases. It was interesting to read it as an adult and I have to say it was just as fascinating to me now as years ago. I really hope it isn't lost to time and people stop reading it.
