Publisher's Synopsis
There was blood on the drawing-room floor and Hazel Deerhurst had disappeared-disappeared apparently wearing slippers over walking-shoes, two pairs of stockings and a bright silk kimono. First investigations shed interesting light on Hazel. There were blots on her family escutcheon, at least one of them put there by her husband. She was also secretary to a man whose secrets involved the future of the empire. Was she victim or villainess? Sir Clinton Driffield investigates in A Minor Operation (1937).
