Le défi du Maltais (1964)
Gwenda Milton, la secrétaire de l'avocat Messer, est retrouvée morte dans la Tamise. Ce qu'on pensait un accident est un meurtre. L'autopsie montre qu'elle ne s'est pas noyée, mais a été étranglée. Elle était la sœur d'Arthur Milton, surnommé « le Sorcier. » Parce qu'il a poussé des criminels à se suicider, il fut contraint de quitter l'Angleterre et vit en Australie. Le meurtre interpelle Scotland Yard mais aussi Arthur Milton qui veut se venger.
