A recently married young wife is murdered. At first, there is a dearth of suspects, then attention is focused by Scotland Yard detectives on one suspect on the basis of apparently clear clues and a clear motive. But wait, all is not what it seems to be! I don't want to reveal too much but a private detective is brought into the case and brings to light new information, another crime, and a new suspect. A search is made, two suspects finally tell their stories, some new clues are identified, and the mystery is finally solved.

Autorenporträt
Arthur John Rees (1872-1942), was an Australian mystery writer. Born in Melbourne, he was for a short time on the staff of the Melbourne Age and later joined the staff of the New Zealand Herald. His proficiency as a writer of crime-mystery stories is attested by Dorothy Sayers in the introduction to Great Short Stories of Detection, Mystery and Horror, 1928. Two of his stories were included in an American world-anthology of detective stories. Some of his works were translated into French and German.
