Blackmail leads to murder - but which of the blackmailer's victims is guilty of such a brutal crime? Classic crime from one of the greats of the Detection Club James Chigwell is a blackmailer, a human spider who fattens on the blood of other men - on their misfortunes and on their mistakes. But retribution comes to Chigwell when one of his victims at last rebels against his maliciousness and bludgeons him to death.
