About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of The Orange-Yellow Diamond by J. S. Fletcher. (Dramatic reading) A novelist finds himself struggling to make ends meet. In his effort to raise a bit of money to get him by, he finds himself in the middle of a mystery. Murder, theft, and love, all the ingredients for a wonderful reading. Please note: There is some stereotyping of ethnic groups however it is presented without malice but rather a sign of the times.
