The Blind Man's Eyes

A sudden death of a wealthy financier sets off a tense mystery that draws together travelers, acquaintances, and investigators. A blind man whose eyes prove to be a crucial, ambiguous clue becomes the focus of suspicion as identities are questioned and alliances shift among passengers on a stormbound train and in the financier's household. The plot alternates quiet social maneuvering with brisk detective action, including surveillance, pursuit, and a manhunt, while the uncovering of a physical imperfection in a left eye leads to a final confrontation that resolves long-hidden deceptions and the central enigma.
