You Can’t Keep The Change
All sorts and conditions of ladies and gentlemen found their way into the expensively furnished, well-appointed Ventura Club. You could get anything you liked there if you knew how to ask for it.
Description
Slim Callaghan is called to Devonshire to investigate a burglary at Margraud Manor, where valuable jewels – heirlooms of the Vendayne family insured for £100,000 – have disappeared.
With his assistant, Windemere Nikolls, he discovers some startling facts – particularly about the lovely Esme Vendayne – and the mystery leads Callaghan to a shady London nightclub and a violent underworld.
You Can’t Keep The Change was originally published in 1940.
