About this audiobook
After a woman reports seing a murder victim, the body suddenly disappears. Arthur Morrison's fictional characters, Martin Hewitt and Inspector Nettings, work to solve the mystery with just a few pieces of evidence to consider -- a dead tortoise, a voodoo doll, a bloodstained axe, and a note from 'an avenger.'
