- Synopsis
- The New York Police were sure Captain Duncan Maclain, the keen, blind detective, was wrong in forestalling the arrest of Seth Hadfield for murder of his estranged father, Blake. Even Maclain was forced to admit the balance of evidence against his client. Father and son had gone together to a deserted downtown office, and it was there that the older man plunged to his death over a stair rail. The case against Seth seemed to be even more damning when it was discovered that he had recently quarreled bitterly with his father concerning a family matter. The further Maclain went in his investigation, the more muddled the picture of crime became. Where there had been no evidence, except against Seth, there was suddenly too much evidence. And too many "accidents." Then Maclain finds a lovely assistant. Without her help, Maclain would never have seen the pattern of murder. Even with everything pointing to the guilty one, it is not until he goes to the extreme of placing himself in the dead man's own danger that the killer's bluff is called. Maclain finds the clever, ruthless murderer--and puts his assistant on a permanent basis.
