- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5When Elliott Patterson disappears with $50,000 of Brunswick College's money, John Putnam Thatcher is called in to help find answers to a senseless puzzle. I think this is one of the weaker entries in the series, but it's an effective mystery and you probably won't guess who the murderer is.
