Reseña del editor:

'Len, this old man has got lots of lovely cash and I thought you would like to get hold of some of it. And I think we might be able to do it,' Virginia Chanderley tells her lover, Len Carron. Virginia, the radical younger daughter of wealthy Sir Leo Chanderley, dreams up an elaborate plot to steal (and then return for ransom) one of the prize paintings in Julius Bern's collection.

But while Virginia and Len are putting their perfect plot into action, Private Investigator Hooky Hefferman has other ideas ...

'You feel instantly at home from page 1 and it's a true world, too' The Times

Biografía del autor:

Laurence Meynell was born in Wolverhampton and educated at St Edmund's College, Hertfordshire. He served in the Artillery during WW1, and after leaving the army in 1919 taught for a short time, before working as a land agent in the Midlands. He had always wanted to write, however, and after winning the publisher Harrap's novel competition in 1924 became a successful and prolific author who, although best known for his crime fiction, also wrote non-fiction and children's books. He was married twice, to writer Shirley Darbyshire, with whom he had a daughter, Ann, and to Joan Belfrage.
