Catherine Morley (an attorney from the city) is summoned to a small, remote Georgia island as executor of the will of her late great-aunt Henny. It seems Henny had recently written a second will, and it is now missing. Did someone take it, where could it be? Catherine meets some family members and an old acquaintance (islander Nathan Corwin) who tries to help her locate the missing will.

This was a very short mystery-suspense. There seemed to be a lot going on for such a short story and it was an enjoyable read. ( )
