Inspector Drake and his sidekick Sergeant Plod return in their most perplexing case yet, confronting everything from missing tortoises, to triplets, to deadly tropical spiders

A maid discovers the corpse of wealthy oil tycoon John Johnson with a sword sticking out of his back

An ordinary case of murder?

If so, then why is Johnson dressed as a woman?

And why does he appear to have swallowed a tortoise?

All these questions and more form the basis for another thrilling ride in the company of the world�s greatest detective, as he attempts to solve the murder whilst also avoiding his own

Plod has had a premonition which, if correct, suggests that Drake has only a matter of hours to live!

Maybe it is just another flashback

But then again, it could be something infinitely more sinister ...
