Cat's Eye

When Andrew Drayton, a collector of jewellery, is found stabbed to death and the young woman who tried to stop the murderer is wounded, Dr Thorndyke is called in to investigate. But although the scene of the crime seems awash with the fingerprints of the attacker, there may be good reason why the police can’t trace the killer. But not only are the facts of the case proving to be vexing but the discovery of a secret chamber and its sinister contents help to reveal that this is no ordinary murder and no ordinary murderer is behind it.

Cand Andrew Drayton, un colectionar de bijuterii, este gasit injunghiat la moarte si tanara care a incercat sa-l opreasca pe criminal este ranita, doctorul Thorndyke este chemat sa investigheze. Dar, desi scena crimei pare inundata de amprentele atacatorului, ar putea exista motive intemeiate pentru care politia nu poate urmari criminalul.
