About this ebook
Pat Abbott has put aside his work as a private detective to serve his country as a marine in World War II—though more presently, he’s sneaking in a quick New York honeymoon with his beloved brand-new wife, Jean. But because of the war, many of his old acquaintances are reluctantly returning from Paris—and one of them is now suspected of murder.
Neither Pat nor Jean is overly fond of the expatriate crowd in general—and Jean has a particular dislike for a divorcée whom Pat seems to admire—but Pat believes the accused is a decent sort, and intends to do his part in finding the real culprit . . .
Praise for thePat and Jean Abbott Mysteries
“Amusing and sophisticated.” —The Star (London)
“[A] well-plotted and mystifying case.” —Saturday Review
“One of the more interesting married teams of detectives . . . A sort of globetrotting Nick and Nora.” —Thrilling Detective
