Summary

** "Bones in London" by Edgar Wallace is an early 20th-century story about Augustus Tibbetts, also known as Bones, who is a rich and a bit odd. This guy is trying to do business in London after a war. The tale starts with shipping deals and how people are dealing with not-so-great economic times. Two guys, Joe and Fred Pole, are worried because their shipping business, the Fairy Line, isn't doing well, and they can't sell it. They talk about getting help from Bones, who got a lot of money from his family. Bones seems like he doesn't know much about business but he is pretty hopeful. The story shows Bones talking to different people, like Fred Pole and his new helper, Marguerite. The book has interesting situations, business deals, and funny and serious times as they try to make money in London. **
