Summary
"Here we have the long-awaited return of the amazing Baron von Kaz ... The baron was redrawn into pursuit of a murderer on the very night of his marriage to Caryl Miquet. After the wedding the baron and his bride had driven to the small California town [fifty-five miles south of San Francisco] where they expected to cultivate their vineyards and live in what comparative peace two such temperamental personalities could manage. But the appearance of a frightened little man in a black derby and an obviously false white beard, who prattled incessantly about his enemies and the 'broken face' which would revenge him if evil befell, eventually brought the baron, much against his will, into the most bizarre and adventurous case of his career" --
