Shortly afterwards two men were found dead in a locked room in an inn in Hampshire. A jury returned a verdict of murder and suicide.

She endured thrilling perils, but with the aid of Jimmie Haswell unmasked a mystery of strange and startling character and the connexion between the two crimes is revealed.
