Inspector Napoleon Bonaparte 13. Broome - a town on the north-west coats of Australia. When Napoleon Bonaparte, half-caste detective, is called in to investigate the strangling of two attractive widows, a strange and terrible motive for murder is gradually revealed. The victims' nightgowns, stolen from their washing lines, are found ripped to shreds. On discovering that the killer suffers from a rare skin disease, Bony's search narrows. Then a third widow meets the same grisly fate...Aided by Mr Dickenson, the town drunk; Abie, an aboriginal tracker who delights in inhaling petrol fumes and one of the Broome widows, Bony must succeed in catching his fish - which is shaping up to be the biggest and most ferocious human shark ever to rise to his bait.
