The method in Bony's madness is that while serving a semi-detention sentence and being made to paint the police station, he wears the best of all disguises... Here again is a first-rate Upfield mystery, made warm by humour, by the background characters and his portrayal of the natural background scene.\u003c\/em\u003e - The Age\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eUpfield at his best.\u003c\/em\u003e - Adelaide News\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arthur W.
