The Casino Mystery: An Inspector Reynolds of Scotland Yard Mystery

An Inspector Reynolds of Scotland Yard Mystery
The famed Casino at Monte Carlo, playground of the rich and famous, has seen more than its share of drama, intrigue, and, yes, crime. Yet when Mrs. Lucas, one of the guests at the Villa Lorne, dies suddenly at the Casino, it is first assumed that her demise is due to natural causes. However, when it is discovered that her valuable pearl necklace has gone missing, doubts begin to surface. Suspicion falls on the villa’s guests, a rather odd assortment of individuals, some of whom may not be what they seem.
There is the Austrian Countess, a former actress; the American businessman who may not be an American; and his niece who is not his niece. Then, too, there is the portly Hollander and his sickly son who seem to have no taste for gambling or nightlife; Tony Daventry the young practical joker; and Glen Armitage who is–well exactly what is he? And, lastly, Mr. Lucas, the loving husband who didn’t love his wife, and of course the hostess at Villa Lorne, Lady Daventry.
Could one of these people be behind the death at the Casino? And if so, why? Even the clever Inspector Reynolds will have his hands full solving the Casino Mystery.
