Description
“I know what I'm talking about. And I was never more serious in my life. I tell you that it is absolutely essential that we, the trustees, should know what is going on…I have got the name of some man in London. He seems to be quite a clever person -- a private detective. I'm going to get in touch with him. I'm going to find out.”

…and find the mysterious murderer of the eminent Viola Alardyse, Silm Callaghan does. No case of murder and intrigue is too knotty for this shrewd detective -- especially when it involves three dazzling sisters as suspects in the killing of their own mother. If only Viola could have predicted that potential for danger when she drafted the will that prevents any of her daughters from being married strictly for her fortune.

When the terms of her airtight will freely grant are compellingly murderous motives for any number of the social crowd who frequent Dark Spinney, the Alardyse manor home. Using his patented methods of investigation -- playing all sides against the middle and lying to all of the suspects and witnesses -- Slim stirs up the calm waters of the tiny village of Alfriston, leaving chaos in his wake and a stunningly solved puzzle at this adventure's thrilling close.
