It was one of the books where the mystery went to the end of the book whilst layered with extra adventures and relationship stories. (This isn't always the case in a Beverly Gray Mystery, in some cases the mystery wraps up half way through the book.)
- And a series of firsts:
This story introduces us to the character of Kay Merrill, rival reporter to Beverly for the first time.
Lenora parachutes out of an aeroplane for the first time.
The story flowed well, only disappoint would have been perhaps that the “whodunit” possibilities were so small there was only one person it could of possibly have been. That said author Clair Blank has not concentrated the story on who was the thief with this Beverly Gray book including a natural disaster.
This would have to be one of my favourite cover art designs on this book.
