RED MONEY


That's what the gypsy woman called it.

"Red money because it is tainted with blood!" declared Mother Cockleshell, between her bouts of fortune telling amidst the Romany caravans parked in Abbott Wood on Lord Garvington's manor.

Oh and the blood flows freely on the manor, thanks to Miss Greeby! And the flames and the pain!

Miss Greeby, you see, loved Noel Lambert. But Lambert loved the more feminine Agnes. But Miss Greeby knew all about red money, ah, yes -- and she also discovered the gypsy secret of Sir Hubert Pine, and the sportsman's desire of Lord Garvington to shoot a burglar in the act!

And so Miss Greeby plotted!

English murder mysteries seldom get more fun or more ghastly than those of the author of The Mystery of a Hansom Cab.
