Another interesting incident in Mr. Pyne's middle-east holiday.
On this occasion, he is among a party of tourists traveling from Amman, now in modern Jordan, to a camp at historic Petra. The group includes an American magnate and his daughter Carol. When Carol loses one of her valuable earrings, Jim Hurst, an ex-convict, becomes a prime suspect. But is he really guilty? Can Parker Pyne shed light on the theft?
Librarian's note: this entry relates to the short story, The Pearl of Price. Collections and the other stories by the author are located elsewhere on Goodreads. The Parker Pyne series includes 14 short stories. Entries for the stories can be found by searching GR for: a Parker Pyne Short Story.
Librarian's note #2: the story was published in the print anthologies, Parker Pyne Investigates and Mr. Parker Pyne, Detective but it first came out in Nash's Pall Mall Magazine in 1933.
Librarian's note #3: this is #10 of the 14 stories.
