Publisher's summary

Folies Bergère, Paris, 1927. Joe Sandilands hurries to the assistance of an old friend who has been arrested for murder. In a cell of the Quai des Orfÿvres, he meets with Sir George Jardine, still in the evening dress stained with the blood of the dead man. The only other witness, a blonde who was sharing the victim's box, has vanished.

Assistance for Joe comes from an entirely unexpected quarter: Francine, a young usherette, clawing her way into the world of the Paris Music Hall. It is she who becomes Joe's guide through this treacherous place, where the killer is sure to be lurking.

A wonderful step back to the 20s and mystery

This series is perfect for those who enjoy a good old fashion mystery from circa 1920. The characters are interesting, the dialogue is great, and the resolution of the mystery is satisfying. Sort of a mixture of The Saint, Bulldog Drummond, and Hercule Poirot.
