The title story takes a young man to the isle of Aros off the Scottish coast, where a wreck, buried treasure and his uncle’s guilt meet the roaring breakers called the Merry Men. With it come “Will o’ the Mill”, the murderer’s interview in “Markheim”, the Scots ghost story “Thrawn Janet”, the Spanish gothic “Olalla” and “The Treasure of Franchard”.
