First comes the niece of a man who committed suicide by jumping naked into a geyser, only to return just in time to be murdered.
Then it’s the strange case of the murder victim’s family covering up for the real killer, while a chef stews in jail.
Finally a master horticulturist discovers the woman he wants to marry: dead and cooling in a hothouse.
Three knocks on the door. Three cases of crime. Enter a world of mendacity, mixed motives, and masterful detection on West Thirty-fifth Street, where murder is always at home.
