OUT OF THE PAST
By
The sharp powers of observation of mild Maud Silver contribute once again to the successful solution of a case in which Alan Field, a waster, returns to England to capitalize on the affections of the women who had once loved him. His murder exposes not only his past but a sequence of dubious indiscretions and releases the marriage he had jeopardized...The victimization of pleasant people extracts a certain sympathy and gently toned suspense.
