About This Book
A detective receives a taunting letter from an elusive figure calling themself the Brown Robin and soon takes on a case of attempted blackmail when Richard F. Mountain reports a missing confession offered for a large sum. The investigator, aided by Chick, Ida, and Patsy, traces abandoned residences, follows shadowy leads, and sets traps while probing a string of unusual incidents including a dog show and a suspicious carriage death. Layered deceptions and tense confrontations lead to a dramatic rescue and the revelation of the person responsible for the crimes.
