THE BACHELORS OF BROKEN HILL

A ""mullock dump"" of an Australian mining town is magicked into multiple murder by a mad family of legerdemain artists. Police Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte mines out the solution to the seemingly disconnected deceases of several bachelors, a hefty policewoman and assorted animals (cats predominating) after the police has been hopelessly stumped. A docile second story man with love and the honest support of his bride on his mind helps Bony along. Puns and cracks sparkle the style of the English-type who-dun-it that seems slated for a sure market.
