"Two men are killed by cyanide poisoning before Detective Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte comes to Broken Hill to take up the case, and a third dies soon after he arrives. All die in crowded public places, and all are elderly and single. Witnesses recall a woman being near each man before he died, but their descriptions seem to be of entirely different women. "Clues are old and witnesses have been mishandled by an inept investigator before Bony arrives in the prosperous mining town, but with the help of the local constabulary, a professional burglar vacationing in Broken Hill, and an amateur quick-sketch artist, Inspector Bonaparte mounts an investigation to try to identify the murderer before she finds another victim.

No one can understand why they didn't return, since no trace of the men or their boat is found during an extensive search. "Weeks later an explanation finally surfaces. A passing fisherman hauls in a gruesome catch - the head of one of the missing men. The bullet hole in its temple raises more questions than it answers. "Who wanted the murdered fisherman dead, and why, are left for Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte to find out, as he tackles one of his most difficult and intriguing cases. "; 6¾" - 7¾" Tall.

The naked body of a man is discovered entombed in the wall of the Split Point Lighthouse on Australia's southeast coat; the murder is two months old, and the identity of the victim is unknown. Of Split Point's suspicious inhabitants, only Ed Penwarden, the coffin-maker, befriends Bony upon his arrival. As he delves into the case, Bony is curious to know why a coffin is moved in the night, who was the girl seen struggling with Dick Lake on the cliff top - and why the Bully Buccaneers came to deal in death.

"In the little town of Mitford, New South Wales, four babies have mysteriously disappeared - all boys, all under three months old, and all apparently neglected by their mothers. The local police have given up, the trail is cold - the only hope is Bony. And when Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte arrives on the scene a new dimension has been added to the puzzle. A fifth child has vanished and the mother has been found lying beside the empty cot . . . dead. But Bony's brief is to find those babies and, for once, murder must wait. "; 6¾" - 7¾" Tall.

Mass Market Paperback. Condition: Very Good-. Illustrated by Bacon, Paul (cover) (illustrator). Fifth Printing. Spine slightly slanted and creased, a little edge wear and rubbing. A nice copy. ; Napoleon Bonaparte; 6¾" - 7¾" Tall; 216 pages; "This new adventure of Inspector Napoleon (Bony) Bonaparte happens on the edge of the desert in Western Australia; it deals with a corpse in a meteor crater and with vital information hidden behind the impassive mask of an aboriginal tribe, where only the half-black Bony has any hope of reaching it. The interplay between whites and blacks, from assimilated to wholly wild, is subtly and sensitively handled, and Bony emerges as one of the rare detective figures with genuine stature as a man. As in most Upfield novels, the geography, the geology and the cultural anthropology of Australia are living elements in the story.".
