About
The curtain had been, drawn back and there was the bed. Wharton and a stranger were standing by it, and when Wharton moved to meet me, I saw on the bed the body of Penelope Craye.
"She's dead," I said.
Wharton merely nodded.
Once again, we meet our old friend Ludovic Travers-now Major Travers, and commandant of Camp 55 in England during World War Two. Nearby lives the rather mysterious Colonel Brende-mysterious because he is in possession of certain fact relating to aerial defense.
Travers's suspicions that all is not, well are intensified when Penelope, the colonel's flashy secretary, is murdered. Then George Wharton appears on the scene-the Scotland Yard man who has already solved some strange mysteries. In the rush of exciting events, which follow, Travers plays a major part in solving the baffling happenings. Christopher Bush, Ludovic Travers, and George Wharton-at their best!
The Case of the Kidnapped Colonel was originally, published in 1942. This new edition features an introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans.
