Hot in pursuit, Dawlish, his wife, and Cedric Forbes find themselves caught between a notorious gang of thieves and a quirky family who may or may not have their own part to play in the crime. As a strand of valuable pearls changes hands, it's up to Dawlish to orchestrate a plan to root out the fakes from the genuine article--and bring the innocent home alive . . .
