SYNOPSIS
FANTASTIC things do happen but not to policemen. This was a favourite dictum of Chief Inspector Rowelf. In 'I KnewMacBean 'DetectiveInspector Finch proves him wrong. A voice out of the fog, a pair of terrified violet eyes sec in a pale pointed face, a coffin in a derelict store, a frightened financier and a killer who was always a good jump ahead of the police. These are the ingredients which go to make up a fast moving and exciting story, in which Inspector Finch, in his own inimitable way, solves a mystery and brings a murderer to justice.
