I've travelled the world twice over,
Met the famous: saints and sinners,
Poets and artists, kings and queens,
Old stars and hopeful beginners,
I've been where no-one's been before,
Learned secrets from writers and cooks
All with one library ticket
To the wonderful world of books.

DEATH IN BOTANISTS BAY
Toby Dyke and the cherubic George
just happened to be in the neighbour-
hood when Edgar Prees committed
suicide by jumping from a cliff. And
they were still on hand when the same
Edgar Prees was found the following
morning shot to death with his
. . .
own revolver. Thus Toby and George,
masters of criminal investigation, are
thrust headlong into their oddest case
—
of a suicide that isn't.
