Two classic mysteries for Charlie Chan to solve In this, the second
volume of Leonaur's Charlie Chan series, the famous
Chinese-Hawaiian detective finds himself grappling with the puzzle
that lies 'Behind that Curtain'-the third of the six original
novels by Earl Derr Biggers. Years ago in far away England, a
solicitor is found murdered wearing silk Chinese slippers. Then a
detective investigating a long cold case is also discovered
murdered-wearing the same slippers And what does this have to do
with five missing young women? In Charlie Chan's fourth outing-The
Black Camel-the 'camel', or death itself according to the Chinese
proverb, has 'knelt by the gate' of a glamorous Hollywood actress
who is visiting Honolulu. More accurately, she has been
murdered-stabbed through the heart-and Inspector Chan must unravel
the web of secrets and intrigue that surrounds her and the
colourful cast of characters of her entourage-any one of whom could
be a killer These new editions of one crime fiction's most iconic
detectives allow readers to join Charlie Chan as he creates progeny
and triumphs of detection with equally inscrutable aplomb.
