Publisher's Synopsis
Art dealer Oliver Cooper has a cushy life in Mallorca - until Ernest White darkens his door. He's demanding repayment on behalf of his Mafia boss - a large sum that Cooper swindled by selling fakes. White is not a patient man, pay up - or else... But Cooper does not pay up. When he disappears, Inspector Alvarez is called in to investigate. But Cooper turns up at his own home - dead. This isn't suicide or accident, and there is no shortage of suspects. But they all have alibis - according to Cooper's watch, smashed and stopped at the time of his death. But is evidence in the shape of a watch to be believed?
