The Queen of a Day. By J. S. Fletcher. (T.

Fisher Unwin. Os.) —This is a mock-Royal romance concerned with one of the con- venient countries in the South-East of Europe which have lately done the writers of these stories such yeoman service. The book is interesting and ingenious in its final denoilment, and it may be surmised that the heroine is very thankful to find that after all a mistake has been made and she is not a Queen. The book is frankly sensational, but good of its kind.
