Episode Details

We introduce in this story the vain French detective Eugene Valmont, who VERY likely was the inspiration for Agatha Christie's vain Belgian detective Hercule Poirot. Barr wrote this short mystery in 1906 and its a pretty good story- here a very valuable diamond necklace which has fallen into the hands of the french government goes up for auction and Chief detective Eugene Valmont is assigned to protect not only the diamond but the person who buys it. It turns into quite a story!
