Murder and conspiracy go up in smoke ...

"The champion deceiver of our time". -- New York Times.

Anthony Cade never suspected that a simple errand on behalf of a friend would make him the centerpiece of a murderous international conspiracy. Someone would stop at nothing to prevent the monarchy from being restored in faraway Herzoslovakia.

The combined forces of Scotland Yard and the French Surete can do no better than go in circles -- until the final murder at Chimneys, the great country estate that yields up an amazing secret.

A bit slow

I've not read any of the Superintendent Battle books before.

This was OK - feels like the first part of the book had very little going on. Definitely some dated views/dialogue in the story. The characters were interesting, but the story felt overly complex.

I'm going to go on to The Seven Dials Mystery soon and see how that goes.
