The Secret Partner (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from The Secret Partner

It was a struggle - a struggle in the dark between himself and another whom, in his dream, King hated with a wild, violent hatred, accompanied by a hunger to kill. Whenever Klaggett King dreamed that particular dream, he rose up the next morning and went about his affairs with a warm glow of satisfaction around his heart, for he knew that the stars in their courses, or mysterious destiny, or the subliminal will, or angels, or devils, or the ouija board, or whatever one likes to call it, were fight ing on his side, and he was bound to win. And it was so. Success followed the wake of this dream as its blazing tail follows the wake of a comet through the night sky.

Excerpt from The Secret Partner

Klaggetss King, like Pilate's wife, was troubled by a dream.

That was the only point of resemblance between him and the noble Roman lady, who was concerned about a certain just man; whereas Klaggett King concerned himself, neither sleeping nor waking, about just men. He let just men look after themselves, and he did exclusively the same. Klaggett King's dream was a recurrent dream. Like the fabled flying Dutchman, or the phantom headless horseman, at certain periods in his life, it appeared athwart the horizon of his slumbering consciousness, and each time it marked a milestone in his career, and was the invariable precursor of a business success.

Always the dream was the same in substance.
