- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5John Putnam Thatcher is attending a Winter Olympics at Lake Placid (not the realm one) where his Sloan Guaranty Trust is providing the banking facilities. They see a star French skier shot and killed in mid jump, and shortly afterward learn the victim was apparently involved in a counterfeit travelers' check scheme that has taken half a million dollars from his bank. I had a vague memory I did not like this one the first time through, but so far I am enjoying rereading it. I notice a resemblance to Double, Double, Oil and Trouble in that the victim in ach s apparently involved in a major fraud
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Thatcher is called in when the Sloan is robbed of half a million dollars at the Lake Placid Olympics. Good setting, intriguing mystery.CMB
