The Black Camel
ByPublisher Description
The murder of a famous actress sends Honolulu detective Charlie Chan on a deadly investigation in this classic mystery novel.
Hollywood starlet Shelah Fane just finished filming her latest movie in Tahiti, not knowing it would be her last. While staying in Hawaii with her director and entourage, she hosts a dinner party at her elegant bungalow. But while the guests await her dramatic entrance, her body is discovered on the beach.
When Charlie Chan of the Honolulu Police Department arrives on the scene, he tells the distraught guests that “death is a black camel that kneels unbidden at every gate.” But as the investigation gets underway and he attempts to make sense of loose alibis, misleading clues, and a cast of outlandish characters, he uncovers a long-cold case involving another Hollywood entertainer . . .Download the free Fable app
