About This Item
Some wear at the edges and corners, and a few spine creases. A tear along the lower rear edge of the spine has been repaired with tape. 237 pages are clean, tight and unmarked. The third of six Charlie Chan novels by Biggers. Carlie Chan, the hero of the Honolulu Police Department, is in San Francisco to solve the murder of a Scotland Yard detective who had been on the trail of a murderer for fifteen years. In order to solve the current murder, Chan must solve the earlier case, too. Which he does in his usual low-key way. A rare book, with most on the market priced substantially higher.
Synopsis
Behind That Curtain (1928) is the third novel in the Charlie Chan series of mystery novels by Earl Derr Biggers.
