The Striped Suit-case

Here's a formula for good mystery reading! Take Two striped suitcases A good-looking secretary - Elsaby Thorn by name A valuable rope of pearls The brutal murder of an eminent scientist - Elsaby's employer A very young dead young woman who of course had no present or future, but, oddly enough, didn't seem to have a past either. Guy Linton, ex-paratropper and acquaintance of Elsaby, who decided to play detective on his own. Mix well with the expert sleuthing of Chief Inspector Julian Rivers of Scotland Yard. Then settle back to enjoy.
