Charles Manfrey's dead.'\u003cbr\u003eLudovic Travers is on army leave in London when actor and theatrical impresario Charles Manfrey is murdered, so it is not surprising that Superintendent Wharton - 'the General' to the initiated - pulls him in to help investigate the crime. All the suspects are examined - the rival actor, the housekeeper, the beautiful and calculating secretary - all seem to have a watertight alibi, yet there is a clue which Travers and Wharton have overlooked.\u003cbr\u003eIt is only months later, while investigating a case of blackmail, that something very unexpected happens - and gives Travers a second chance of finding the killer of Charles Manfrey.\u003cbr\u003eThe Case of the Second Chance was originally published in 1946. This new edition features an introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans.\u003cbr\u003e\"Bush gets better and better . . .
