The Gold of the Gods: A Mystery and Detective Classic By Arthur B. Reeve! AAA+++

This is a very good Craig Kennedy mystery. It begins with the visit of a professor of Archeology from the University who asks Kennedy's assistance in finding who stole an ancient Inca dagger from the items brought back from a recent Peruvian dig. While the Professor is still conferring with Kennedy, word comes that a wealth Peruvian has just been murdered--as it turns out, murdered with the stolen dagger.
