Synopsis

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
Inspector French investigates a sophisticated counterfeit coin ring, following a trail from a nervous young typist's police report to a Guildford workshop where a gang is producing debased silver. The case takes a deadly turn when a shop girl who stumbled on the conspiracy is kidnapped, and leaves only a desperate paper-plane SOS hidden in a remote Surrey village. A classic Freeman Wills Crofts "howdunit" procedural, packed with meticulous detection and tense coastal chase sequences.

About Freeman Wills Crofts

The author, Freeman Wills Crofts (1879–1957), was ill for a prolonged period but spent time turning out his first novel in 1919. It caught on and he was soon recognized as a respected creator of detective fiction. That led to this book about Inspector French in 1924 and the Scotland Yard investigator became his favorite character. This was a big beginning for his literary work and he turned out a book practically every year over the next three decades.
