Please come for week-end urgent stop vital matters arising Maxwell stop love stop Nick.
This was the strange telegram that brought four ex-wives of the late Maxwell Orbit, wealthy playboy, sportsman and woman-chaser, to the house in California of Nick Hogarthy, famous woman journalist and Maxwell's first wife. Orbit had died in New York in mysterious circumstances; he had been a thoroughly nasty piece of work, sadistic, unfaithful and two-faced. Each of the attractive women sitting round the dining-table in Nick's beautiful house had good cause to wish him dead. This intriguing situation is exploited by the author with great skill - witness the witty, and often acid, exchanges between the five extremely ill-assorted ladies as they parry the vital question: Who killed Maxwell Orbit?
