| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Murder in the Gilded Cage" by Samuel Spewack is a detective novel written in the early 20th century. It follows a reporter-turned-press agent who is drawn into the scandalous orbit of wealthy divorcée Dora Breese, her idle suitor Guy Thomas, her children, and her steadfast ally Gordon Rice, as a yacht trip to Havana ends in a high-society murder. The investigation pulls in Ben Smith, an American detective in Havana, and Boris Perutkin, a formidable Russian sleuth with an old case that unexpectedly overlaps this circle. The opening of the novel presents the narrator’s promise to tell the unvarnished truth of Mrs. Breese’s death, then sketches the sensational divorce that made her famous and the delicate triangle with actor Guy Thomas. Hired as her press agent, the narrator sails on her yacht with Rice and the two Breese children; tension spikes when Dora impulsively announces her engagement to Guy, Henry Jr. stages a shocking overboard plunge that Rice heroically thwarts, and that night the narrator spies Guy dumping cartridges from a pearl-handled revolver into the sea. In Havana, the narrator meets Ben Smith and the imposing Perutkin, who links this group to an unsolved Riga murder involving the Countess’s former husband, while Henry Breese Sr. quietly arrives in the city. Soon after, Dora is found shot through the heart in her opulent “Gilded Cage”; no weapon is found, the windows are locked, no shot was heard, and Guy claims he was upstairs when the butler discovered the body. Rice bursts in to accuse Guy, brandishing telegrams about a chorus-girl fiancée, talk of sudden wealth, and a check the bank deemed a forgery—setting the stage for the inquiry to begin. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
