The villain of the story is a ‘nut’ with a cherubic face, by whose machinations the hero is involved in a murder mystery which includes an unexpected fortune. The inevitable love-interest enters into the tale; blackmail helps the action along; and an orange-spotted dress appears at critical moments. The writing is careless and hasty.
