Mystery without Campion, but still very good.

Just a warning--Campion does not appear in this book. But it is a good, solid mystery with a lot going for it.The action centers around the Ivory's art gallery, where a series of malicious pranks are causing problems. When a valuable painting is slashed right before an opening, things really come to a head. There's a pretend engagement, a man come back from the dead, an unscrupulous business manager, and finally, a murder. The ending is very exciting. My only complaints are that the policeman in charge of the case is more of a characture that a real person and that the identity of the weapon is not as much of a secret to the reader as it is to the police.
