'I'm taking a revolver to Thrackley. You never know with blokes
like Carson. I hate these harmless, potty people - they're always
up to something.' Jim Henderson is one of six guests summoned by
the mysterious Edwin Carson, a collector of precious stones, to a
weekend party at his country house, Thrackley. The house is gloomy
and forbidding but the party is warm and hospitable - except for
the presence of Jacobson, the sinister butler. The other guests are
wealthy people draped in jewels; Jim cannot imagine why he belongs
in such company. After a weekend of adventure - with attempted
robbery and a vanishing guest - secrets come to light and Jim
unravels a mystery from his past.
