'The leading characters of "Printer's Devil" are fond, foolish, Horrie Pedler, head of the unique publishing business, "The Pedlar's Pack," and her star author, Marmion Poole, debonair and devil-may-care. Horrie is found dead at the foot of the rear stairway of her flat. At the Coroner's inquest a faint, sinister note was heard regarding the disappearance of the M.S. of a story by Poole, and which contained many people's secrets and Horrie alone, besides the author had read it. The publication of the M.S. might have wrecked the lives of several public men and women, and the unearthing of the criminal and the reason of the murder form the plot of the stirring story.'
