Recurring Characters: Harley Quin

Synopsis

While visiting the rather dull, conventional Denmans, Mr Satterthwaite unexpectedly meets Mr Quin on a road called Harlequin’s Lane. Even he can’t foresee the impact that Quin will have on the Denmans and, indeed, all the residents of Harlequin Lane!

The Times Literary Supplement said in 1930, “Mr Harley Quin… has a queer power of making (Satterthwaite) perceive a new significance in events.” This short story is published in The Mysterious Mr Quin.
