From the back cover: Thomas Charleston Betterton, a famous scientist, has vanished. Conflicting reports of sightings of the missing man have come in from all over Europe. Then, his wife of six months decides to take a holiday to Morocco - for a rest. That's when a strange and surprising series of events begins to unfold.
A superb - and different - mystery from a master at her best.

Sending to Weeder as an rabck in trade for a book that she sent to me. I hope she enjoys it.

This little paperback landed in my mailbox today from Lubbock, TX. It has only 216 pages so it looks to be a quick week end read. Amazon readers give it mixed reviews although mostly four or five stars. There are also a very few low reviews-as is common. With all those reviews in mind I look forward to reading the book and see what I think.

This little mystery has been sitting on my shelf too long but it's finally beginning its next trip--to Pasadena CA USA. It will be moving in with LittleWhiteBird and I hope she enjoys it as much as I did.

Happy holidays LittleWhiteBird!

Thank you, weeder! I'm looking forward to reading this, so far I've liked everything I've read by Agatha Christie. I'll lend it to my friend as well, who also likes mysteries.

I’m giving this book to a friend who was asking for some mysteries.
