The Efford Tangle

This mystery deals with the vicissitudes of a young girl who is brought, after years of absence from her birthplace, to meet her father for the first time. To her horror, her father tells her that he has just served fifteen years for murder. Now she must make up her mind whether she believes his plea of innocence. A young newspaper man soon finds himself in love with the girl and up to his neck in trouble. There is another murder to complicate matters, and yet another, but Inspector McLean unravels the tangle.
