The Gold Bag

When millionaire Joseph Crawford  is slain in the study of his New Jersey home the only physical evidence the police have to go on is a small gold bag left at the crime scene. Suspicion falls on the dead man’s niece, Florence, who admits to having once owned a similar bag and who stands to inherit the bulk of Crawford’s fortune. Amateur sleuth Burroughs believes her to be innocent. The killer could be Florence’s unscrupulous fiancé or one of the victim’s many bitter employees.

Burroughs becomes infatuated with Florence and can no longer be objective. It’s up to society detective par excellence Fleming Stone to solve the mystery of … The Gold Bag.
