Book Summary

Sigbee Manderson was dead and few people cared.  The millionaire financier was detested by men of power and ruthlessness.  Suspects were not hard to find--they were too plentiful.  A beautiful and remorseless woman breaks down under questioning, the most likely suspect has an airtight alibi, and Trent himself abandons the case--and refuses to publish his findings!
