Police detective Angus Campbell, a dour and methodical Scottish American policeman, cordially disliked his partner, the ebullient and overweight Irish cop Patrick ORourke. And the feeling was cordially reciprocated by ORourke. Both were annoyedbut not really concernedabout orders to guard the frantic?millionaire John Cobb on a late-night journey on the New YorkChicago train. After locking Cobb in his compartment, they would look forward to the pleasure of antagonizing each other in the club car. That is, until Cobb turned up missing. Whoever was responsibleand there were several possibilities among the passengers, including an incomparably strong and handsome man, a breathtakingly beautiful woman, and an improbably villainous strangerhad perhaps discounted each detective individually, and perhaps justly so. But what the malefactor could not know was the insight of their superior, Inspector Corrigan: Separate theyre not much, but, when theyre together, they hate each other so much that they grind one another sharp as razors.

Seven Faces originally appeared as six installments in Detective Fiction Weekly during October and November 1936. This editionthe first to collect the installments in book form, uncut and as the author intendedintroduces todays readers to a most memorable detective duo.
