Bernie Simmons, assistant D.A., prosecuting a man for the murder of his wife whose jewels had disappeared simultaneously, witnesses the mugging-killing of his friend and courtroom adversary, the defense lawyer, and finds a second body which is not quite cold -- that of a private detective. Mr. Lockridge, pleasant entrepreneur that he is of the midthink mystery story, is just the one to see that curiosity kills the cat which has gotten away with all the cream en route.
