"Farrar and I had the good fortune to be acquainted with Entwhistle and to like him. We had the bad fortune to be an hour too late to prevent him from being killed."

Philip Tolefree, the discreet City detective, is called on by Mr. Entwhistle to travel to France and spy on a woman at a certain hotel. Tolefree is initially reluctant to take on such seedy work until he receives Entwhistle's assurances that this has less to do with the woman than the men who wish to make her acquaintance. Having completed the task, Toelfree arrives at Entwhistle's country house ready to make his report - only to find that the eminent businessman has been found murdered in his study less than an hour earlier...

Originally published in 1939, this is a vintage murder mystery from the golden age of crime fiction.
