The Blue Envelope: George Nevill, the deputy commissioner of San Fernago, is presented with an interesting case when Miss Sylvester accuses Dulac, Mrs. Jones' chauffeur, of being a German spy. As far as Nevill knows, Dulac is the loyal Frenchman he seems, but Miss Sylvester knows better and is willing to go to any lengths to prove it.
Friday, the Nineteenth: Boyce is sick of his wife and his boring life. He and his neighbor Molly have been flirting for a while, but the time has come for them to do something about it. They agree to meet the next day at a downtown hotel. But when he awakes the following morning Boyce discovers that it's still Friday. Every morning is Friday! Can he and Molly ever escape this endless day and find Saturday together?
The Chain of Death: Gilbert Emery has been shot during an apparent robbery, but his daughter Lois thinks there is more to it. She convinces her uncle, Barty Clement, to come back to the house with her to investigate. Clement is a reluctant sleuth, but even he can see that something is amiss here-everyone hates Emery, and no one is telling a straight story to him or the police.
Three clever mystery stories plus 16 more, some set in the Caribbean, many set during the second World War, all infused with Holding's psychological twists and turns and her cool depiction of the contrariness of human nature.
