Title: The man who died twice
Description: Who was Jim MacQuade: Old John MacQuade's nephew? The man Tenney had known in the London hospital? A fortune-hunter trying to cash in on a good thing? Or a murderer?

Kate Royce knew part of the answer, but had her own reasons for keeping it to herself. Major Gilette, Deputy Commissioner of Police, found it hard to believe that anyone who'd been wounded in Germany wouldn't know a dead man when he saw one. And old John MacQuade had certainly been dead—murdered the night Jim had been seen climbing through the window of his study.

It was to take another death, though—and almost a third—before the mystery on the palm-dotted little island of Barbados was to be cleared up. And the climax was to have the drama of a far grimmer place.
