The Secret of Chimneys

It seemed like easy money: deliver Count Stylptich's memoirs to his London publisher and return a packet of compromising letters to the lady who penned them. But within hours of Anthony Cade's arrival in England, three strangers accost him and one ends up dead. A cryptic note leads Cade to the country estate known as Chimneys, accompanied by ravishing aristocrat Virginia Revel. Missing jewels, a notorious French thief, a plot to restore the throne of Herzoslovakia, and the murder of Count Stanislaus send veteran Inspector Battle to the scene.
