Stolen Halo


Stolen Halo was published by Arrow in 1973 and is a story about Doreen, a young girl who has been living in Cairo after the death of her bigamist husband. At her lowest point, she comes up with a daring plan to exchange places with a dead English girl in order to start a new life!

Francis Marshall illustrates the cover of this book, which is set around 1940. To me, it's an indistinct cover. We see our hero and heroine, but it's like looking through a lens. They are dressed for dinner in a hot climate and we see the palm trees and native waiters in the background.
