Hascombe, a private eye for an Oklahoma insurance company, arrives in New York to investigate the mid-air explosion of an aeroplane. The main suspect is missing, but the evidence pointing to him is so obvious it looks as though he could have been framed.
The light, breezy tone makes this an entertaining read, but is at odds with the death toll.
