Description
Behind That Curtain is the third novel in Earl Derr Biggers' Charlie Chan series. Set primarily in California, this mystery follows Sir Frederic Bruce, a former head of Scotland Yard, as he pursues a long-cold trail of murder. Fifteen years ago, a London solicitor was killed under circumstances with only one clue: a pair of Chinese slippers. Since then, Bruce has been searching for the killer and investigating a series of disappearances around the world, including those of a woman named Eve Durand in rural India. Bruce's latest lead takes him to a dinner party attended by several important guests, but just as he thinks he may finally solve the case, he is killed - last seen wearing the same Chinese slippers that were his only clue. With Bruce dead and the killer still at large, it falls to Charlie Chan to unravel the mystery and bring justice to those responsible. This Kindle edition of Behind That Curtain offers a gripping tale of detection and suspense, with a complex web of clues and twists that will keep readers guessing until the very end.
