Jack Hardisty was like a firecracker trying to act like a cannon. He embezzled $10,000 form his father-in-law's bank, and then stole another $90,000 for good measure. Jack didn't last long with that kind of money. Somebody shot a nice clean hole through him and dumped his body in a log cabin.... Lots of peple couldn't stomach Jack Hardisty. His wife hated him and was unfaithful. His father-in-law thought he was the scum of the earth. Others thought he was less. It took a buried alarm clock, merrily ticking away the wrong time, to break the case... in as startling and weird a solution as Perry Mason ever handed the police!
