Description

Inspector Appleby is stranded on a very strange island, with a rather odd bunch of people - too many men, too few women (and one of them too attractive) cause a deal of trouble. But that is nothing compared to later developments, including the body afloat in the water, and the attack by local inhabitants.

Strange plot, not one of his better books.

Awful racism. I couldn't finish it, it was so repellent. Do not read. (Other books by Innes have some racism, but NONE of them are as loathsome as this piece of shit.)
