About this book
Jewels and social ambition make Joe Lewinstein's country house party an inviting target for a thief. He hopes his lavish hospitality will strengthen useful connections, while his wife worries about Four Square Jane. This elusive criminal leaves a printed label with four squares and the letter J. Lewinstein seeks help from a London detective agency. Caroline Smith arrives carrying its card and meets him in the library.
Edgar Wallace gives this English mystery a setting where wealth and respectability invite close scrutiny. Lord Claythorpe plans to move valuable bonds from a bank, despite his assistant Remington's doubts. Their conversation brings together an approaching wedding, unpaid money and a dispute over the worth of a pearl necklace. Sharp exchanges make financial arrangements feel increasingly uncertain.
