A Chief Inspector Little John Series
Superintendent Little John of Scotland Yard becomes involved in the murder of a famous film-star on location on the Isle of Man. The case not only concerns life in the fantastic atmosphere of the film world, but of high finance and the tycoons who manipulate it, as well. The threads of this strange affair are intentional and stretch from Dublin to London and thence to the Riviera, where Littlejohn again co-operates with his old friend, inspector Dorange, of the Surété at Nice. They find themselves within an inch of death before they finally wind-up the case.
