FIRE, BURN!

Turning back the clock sends Detective Inspector John Cheviot to 1829 where he is scheduled to be superintendent of the new law enforcement and is given the case of Lady Cork's stolen birdseed. This turns out to be jewels and Cheviot, his 20th century knowledge of little avail, turns out to be more than on a spot. An elegance of entertainment for 1957 readers before Cheviot is returned to the present.
