A serial play by Aubrey Feist
4—‘The Trail of the Red Herring'
Produced by David Davis
Where is the Firebrand, the most famous ruby in the world? Four days only are left until the opening of the Great Exhibition and nothing has apparently been accomplished. The only clue is the piece of paper on which were written the figures of the ' secret code,' and even this has been stolen by Calamanco before it could be deciphered. But watch Sergeant Buck: he is not yet at the end of his resources
