Diamond theft in Paris masked by paste gems in high society
Detectives Britz and Donnelly pursue a jewel theft at Mrs Missioner’s estate after a diamond necklace, later found to be paste, is shattered by Curtis Griswold and Braxton Sands. Elinor Holcomb is cleared as a suspect when cablegrams reveal the original was never removed from Paris. Britz and Dr Fitch press the motive and seek the genuine thief while tracking a Parisian maker.
