Bluffing for a Murder Case in New York Southampton
Barry Gilbert, a jobless nineteen year old posing as Jack Ridder, hides in a Southampton summer home as detectives probe the Kelly murder. He enlists Evans and Willetts to stage a cab-hunting trap while Peggy Rogers reveals how Jack Ridder and she end up entangled with the toxic web of Tammany Hall politics, a courthouse feud, and a Philippine chauffeur. Barry edges toward a possible indictment, a rescue plan, and a chance to clear his name.
