Slow and steady wins the case as a dedicated London policeman puzzles through a fatal fall, a financial mystery, and an eccentric familys many secrets (Kirkus Reviews).
 
Miss Penelope Blows fatal fall from her bedroom window would seem like a tragic accident, if it werent for Penelopes multiple visits to Scotland Yard before her death, trying to get in touch with Inspector Littlejohn.
