About this ebook
Lord Frensham is being swindled in the stock market, and his number-one suspect is Anthony Braid. But Braid has the nerve to suggest that it’s actually Frensham’s own nephew who’s stealing from him. The truth behind the embezzlement will have to be untangled by Scotland Yard’s Inspector Elk after Frensham is found dead in a highly staged “suicide” . . .
