In the third installment of the Charlie Chan mysteries the
diminutive Chinese detective who hails from Honolulu finds himself
back in San Francisco after his incredible adventures in the
California desert with the previous book, The Chinese Parrot. A
former head of Scotland Yard comes to town hot on the trail of a
15-year-old murder, where the significant clue is a pair of Chinese
slippers. There is also the mysterious disappearance of a series of
women, one of whom the British inspector believes may be linked to
his case. When the English sleuth is himself inexplicably murdered
in a social gathering, it's up to Charlie Chan to figure out the
guilty party, and solve the related mystery.
