GRIPPING
MYSTERY
"Take nothing for granted remove no one from your list of suspects! NO ONE1"
Pierre Dufresne's terrified warning sounded in Sergeant Harper's ears as he
plunged from one mystery iiito another deeper, more deadly.
For from then on, tragic intrigue n)urked a trail through the snow and info (lie-
ancient Dufresne ' mansion .'where ghostly candle light nickered on a deatiiiy
scene.
' How could anyone doubt that the two men there had killed each other and that one of
them disguised as Dufresne was the crank who .had been writing threatening letters 'tb
him? ' "
But Harper's hunch is different He tugs at the threads of mystery and weaves thein
into a net to trap the killer. His spotlight of suspicion falls in turn on lovely Sylvia Ju
1resne--''a very clever and beautiful woman," her husband had said high-strung Aline
Croyden, her sister; Andrews, the old butler, the chauffeur and the other servants. Bit by
bit, out of the lurking shadows of the old house, emerge the motives in die drama.TAnJ;
finally, the solution. .
