by A. H. Z. Carr ‧ RELEASE DATE: Feb. 5, 1970
A cheery Caribbean murder tale, in which a corporation American is dispatched with a machete (or was he?) on the Paradise Isle of St. Caro. The prime suspect is Maubee, a roving Lothario of spectacular amatory talents. But island Police Chief Xavier and his American sidekick flush out a love nest of island whites, and in the course of solving a second murder of a native woman take the Rake off the hook. Jolly sleuthing, mon.
