To mark the publishing centenary of Freeman Wills Crofts, 'The King
of Detective Story Writers', this is one of six classic crime
novels being issued in 2020 featuring Inspector French, coming soon
to television. The Joymount Rapid Hardening Cement Manufacturing
Company on the Solent is in serious financial trouble. Its rival,
Chayle on the Isle of Wight, has a secret new manufacturing process
and is underselling them. Having failed to crack the secret
legitimately, two employees hatch a plot to break in and steal it.
But the scheme does not go according to plan, resulting in damage
and death, and Inspector French is brought in to solve one of the
most dramatic and labyrinthine cases of his entire career.
