Man of Two Tribes (An Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte mystery)

Corners bumped, slight edge wear and rubbing. An attractive copy.; 6¾" - 7¾" Tall; 215 pages; "Myra Thomas, an acquitted murderess, appears to have walked off the train somewhere along the four hundred miles of track that cross the treeless Nullarbor Plain in Southern Australia; and Detective Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte, the only policeman capable of coping with such country, is out looking for her. With two camels and a dog for company, Bony searches for a clue. He finds a missing woman and a dead man; he finds a murderess and five murderers; on top of this, he lands in prison in the middle of thousands of square mile of uninhabitable desert. The terrain, character, and dangers are described by an acknowledged master of the Australian scene - this is 'vintage' Upfield. ".
