A tragic fire in Starvel Hollow has left behind a heap of smoldering ruins. An old man and two of his servants were lost in the flames—along with the fortune he kept in cash. With the bodies charred beyond recognition, there’s no reason to suspect foul play . . . until the supposedly incinerated banknotes are discovered in circulation. Scotland Yard Insp. Joseph French has some questions for Ruth Averill, the elderly man’s niece. Ruth’s life was saved on the night of the fire by a chance invitation from friends. But could she have set her uncle’s house aflame? As French peels back the layers of deceit, he uncovers a twisting case of arson, murder, and body snatching . . .
