Revisiting"" Monsignor Knox proves to be a vigerous exercise in deduction for the reader as well as insurance investigator, Miles Bredon, who is confronted, at a house party, by the death of a VIP. Bredon's tie-in with the Yard, with an attitude of disbelief, and with a perspicacious wife leads him to several try-one of theory before he finds one that fits closely. Flatteringly intelligent, even from 1934.
