AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A policeman recalls the murder of a girl at the foot of the Grampians years before, when he was posted there as a police cadet chasing cattle rustlers. In love with the girl himself he is eclipsed by a clever mysterious Frenchman - who proves to be very jealous. The girl's murder soon after their engagement is attributed to an escaped cattle rustler but the narrator has his own theory. Well written romance/murder story - a little in the 'W. W.' style. (PB)

Notes
