Set on a country station. Sinclair and a foppish young detective are assigned separately to investigage a series of robberies. Dandy Art poses as a lady's man and enjoys the role until his flirtation with the squatter's daughter's lady's companion leads to his death at the hands of Quiet Alf, revenging himself on the Squatter with the companion's help for imprisoning his father. Quiet Alf dies too with shot's from Dandy's derringer. Extracts from Dandy's diary. (PB)
