Customer Reviews

Cheyney writes an enjoyable, intelligent mystery

Slim Callaghan is up to his usual tricks, staving off the attention of two gorgeous cousins, Desiree and Manon Gardell. Their uncle, Admiral Gardell, has just been murdered -- or was he a suicide? After a brief mourning period, they hire Slim, hoping he can riddle out their sticky position as beneficiaries of the Admiral's insurance policies. At the same time, Slim is recovering from a nasty beating by Nicky Starata and his oversized henchman, Leon. Nicky is mixed up in a suspicious warehouse fire, and Slim has told his insurance company not to pay the claim. An urbane and nicely-plotted mystery by Cheyney who published 35 novels and passed away in 1951.
