In END OF CHAPTER, he has been called in to find the person in the publishing firm of Wenham & Geraldine who sabotaged the final proofs of General Richard Thoresby’s memoirs. General Thoresby wants to tell the world about the fatal misgovernance of Major General Sir Charles Blair-Chatterley. Wenham & Geraldine would be just as liable for damages in a lawsuit as General Thoresby would, and they aren’t willing to be party to the attack. Contrary instructions are given to the publishers to leave the libelous passages in, and the book is printed with them. Just as Nigel Strangeways thinks he has found out who did it, that someone is murdered.
