THE CARD -- PATON MYSTERY by A. B. Ouaningham

THE CARD -- PATON MYSTERY

By

Publisher: Dutton

Sheriff Boden of The Murder Case appears again in an adequate tale of clandestine meetings, bloodhou trackings, set in the sugar cane country. The beautiful wife of a rich planter has been killed -- gorily enough; there's plenty of bafflement; all sorts of guilty secrets are aired; and there's plenty of action and suspense before the murderer (who could have been anyone) is apprehended. Fair.
