Christopher Storm Arden lives for the thrill—the faster the car, the sharper the turn, the greater the danger, the better. But when a sinister conspiracy begins to uncoil beneath the surface of London's glittering social scene, Arden finds himself tangled in a plot far deadlier than any high-speed chase.A scientist's secret formula, a string of mysterious deaths, and a shadowy adversary with nothing to lose—Daredevil dives headfirst into a world of deceit, invention, and intrigue. Arden's only weapons are his sharp wit, quick fists, and the sheer audacity that earned him his nickname.Taut, stylish, and fast-paced, this gripping novel delivers a rich blend of danger, charm, and dark humor. Originally published in 1929, Daredevil remains a bold, character-driven adventure from a master of the genre.
