Satisfaction Guaranteed. Richard Patton, an ex-detective inspector enjoying early retirement, is asked by his wife's old college friend, a successful novelist, to investigate unofficially a suspected burglary at her house overlooking the Norfolk Broads. Although the place is full of treasures, apparently there has been nothing stolen; no sign of fingerprints or footprints, just a broken roof tile and, Raffles-like, three telltale bags of Earl Grey tea. Yet Patton, digging deeper, soon discovers evidence of an apparent murder, a young woman's drowning which has been officially accepted as accidental. At this point, Richard finds his loyalties severely strained, and as his investigation progresses, he unearths a background of family strife sufficiently emotional to have provoked violence. But it is still unclear how the dead young woman could have been the victim. In pursuit of this conundrum, Richard traces the linking motivation, but, if he takes the matter further, he will provoke a situation in which the loyalties involved even come between himself and his wife. Reluctantly he withdraws, only to learn that another death has occurred. Realizing he might have prevented this second fatality, he returns to a final, angry and dramatic interrogation, which ultimately reveals the truth. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
