Of these two men, which one put the scheme in place to frame the other? Grappling with a diabolically ingenious plan, two police officers—the Frenchman Lefarge and the Englishman Burnley—crisscross Europe to unravel the skein of one of the most inventive crimes of the early 20th century. One of the great classics of the mystery, a must-have in any mystery lover's library.
