An Albert Campion mystery.
First, there is a skeleton in a dinner jacket. Then a corpse in a golden aeroplane. After another body, Albert Campion nearly makes a fourth…
Both the skeleton and the corpse have died with suspicious convenience for Georgia Wells, a femme fatale, monstrous but charming actress with a raffish entourage. Georgia’s best friend just happens to be Valentine, a top couturiere and Campion’s sister. In order to protect Valentine, Campion must unravel a story of blackmail and ruthless murder. The story is full of intrigue, intricately and cleverly written, and populated with colourful characters.
