'It would be grand to help you find poor old Velfrage. Pretty obvious that something has happened to him. I mean - well, he may have been murdered, mayn't he?' A solicitor charged with the care of the famously cursed Rabethorpe diamond has disappeared, along with the man charged with its care. The prime suspect, Bruce Habershon, wakes up in hospital after suffering quinine-induced delusions and tells a tale full of dwarves, chamber-maids and bodies wrapped in carpets.
