Produktbeschreibung

The Toff (the 'Honourable Richard Rawlinson') is faced with a complex mystery seemingly centred on a gang in the East End of London. Why on earth would someone steal the hair from three lovely heads? Yet this is one of the most difficult cases 'The Toff' has been presented with. One clue after another leads to unexpected twists and false trails, whilst the climax to the adventure is equally puzzling and exciting.
