Synopsis
A very complex mystery develops in London's Clubland and among the legal grandees who frequent the Old Bailey and the Inns of Court. For the Blackstone Club, with its fine collection of snuff boxes, is a legal preserve. There undoubtedly is 'a pinch of snuff': the entire valuable collection is stolen and the reader is told, through the eyes of a young club servant, exactly how it was done. But when a vicious murder follows, this young man finds himself in very hot water indeed. And he cannot extricate himself by telling the truth, so that the police find little difficulty in exposing his various makeshift alibis. This is a story of the kind that always has another unknown villain behind the last one to be unmasked - and the end comes as a shock, after some marvellously convincing and exciting court scenes.Latest Additions
