Death Is in the Garden

The dead woman looked strangely like Dolores Kennedy, only child of wealthy parents. But it was Dolores herself who stumbled over the body outside the exclusive Philadelphia girls' school she attended. And Inspector Davis could find nothing but coincidence to tie the two together.
It was this striking resemblance that kept Davis hunting odd facts and tracking peculiar clues for more than a year. During those months a man was tried for the murder and acquitted. Dolores sank into a deep lethargy, and her interest in life was aroused only by the appearance next door of a very elgible bachelor, a man whose suave manners and social compentence were belied by his private behavior.
Dolores started by being curious about her neighbor, and ended up deeply attracted to him. Their unusual relationship, plus the sudden appearance of an old flame of Dolores's, brought this strange case to an unexpected climax -- which Inspector Davis resolved almost by remote control!
