The young vulnerable girl just up from the country and needing a protector on her first real visit to London, the perpetrator of the crimes himself, hiding his cycnicsm and creativity with cover-ups beneath a respectable exterior, the nosy neighbor who is so helpful to police investigation, the good friend who makes promises (against her better judgment), and then calls the police anyway, the naive elderly lady who can't stop believing in the ultimate goodness of mankind. To date, many investigations of space tethers are for applications in debris removal. The growing problem of space debris and their influence on the access to orbit became commonly recognized by the scientific community after the definition of the so-called “Kessler Syndrome” [ 13], introducing the risk of losing access to Earth orbit regions due to the constant growth of debris and the consequent catastrophic impacts cascade effect. Despite efforts to reduce new spacecraft influence on the debris environment (e.g., [ 14, 15]), the recent plans for large constellations [ 16, 17] are constantly scrutinized and their short and long term influence on the space debris environment stability is under evaluation [ 18, 19, 20]. In this context the scientific community is evaluating further mitigation strategies, considering both the utilization of enhanced protections [ 21] and the implementation of post mission disposal (PMD) [ 22] and active debris removal (ADR) [ 23] operations. Among the different strategies for PMD and ADR [ 24], Electrodynamic Tethers (EDTs) have been investigated as a reliable and convenient solution in low-Earth orbit (LEO) [ 25, 26]. For further information on EDTs and the most recent evolution, the low-working-function tethers (LWTs), see [ 27, 28, 29, 30].The reader already knows what's happened, whodunit, and is privy to witnessing the perpetrator at work during the course of a day. The suspense comes in trying to understand the mind of this criminal and in watching how events play out so that Scotland Yard can not only figure things out, but capture this guy as well.

There are some switches in perspective which are wonderfully done and which increase the suspense, because Allingham hands the reader one part of the puzzle after another, and while each character holds only one or two, the reader is the only one who can see the whole picture.

There is no Mr. Lugg or Amanda Fitton either and that means it has less comic relief.However,that also makes the book a serious exercise in psychological exploration of human nature.This book is about Mrs. Tassie and Gerry hawker and how goodness can foster evil out of selfless love.

First, the setup employed for thrusters authority verification is used to test the proposed method with a 1.5 m long polyamide line with a diameter of 0.3 mm (theoretical stiffness of 129 N/m); the S-DM motion detected with the MC system is reconstructed and compared to simulations, as well as loads measured with the load cell mounted on the constrained end. In a second phase, the line is substituted with the aluminium tape and the test is repeated with the same parameters but without the load cell, whose stiffness is comparable to that of the tape and might therefore invalidate the experiment. This approach allows a first validation of the proposed method with the elastic polyamide line and then the verification of the tape characteristics.
