WINGS ABOVE THE CLAY PAN by Arthur W. Upfield

WINGS ABOVE THE CLAY PAN

By

Pub Date: May 7th, 1943
Publisher: Doubleday, Doran

Another exploit of Napolean Bonaparts, Australian half-breed, this time in the cattle country of western Queensland, when a mysteriously paralyzed girl -- found in an abandoned plane, is befriended and nursed by the Nettlefolds and saved from poisoning by them. Mony resorts to tracking, many a walkaround, and unorthodox uses to catch his would-be killer and save the girl. Some holes not cleared up until the end, but unhackneyed material.
