Well, I was wrong. It isn't the first time, I assure you, and probably won't be the last. The Shadow of the Rope was a pretty good mystery, and quite well-written but not much of a gothic.
I remember it being stated on this forum that during the publishing boom various types of stories (albeit worthy ones) were passed off as gothics that didn't really deserve the name. This story was one of them.
