About this Item

GARDNER, Erle Stanley [309] pp. The World Publishing Company 1947 Second Edition 8 1/8" x 5 3/4" Jacket design by Ruzicka w/ 2 jackets/ 1 duplicate "When rich old Peter Laxter died, his will specified that his heirs were to retain his faithful old caretaker, Ashton. The heirs of Peter Laxter were willing to keep Ashton, but they didn't want Ashton's pet--Clinker. Clinker had to go, they said. Ashton came to Perry Mason and asked for legal protection for Clinker. A little ridiculous, the idea of the famous criminal lawyer representing a cat--but Ashton pulled out a sheaf of bills to back his argument. And when Peter Laxter's heirs appeared on the scene with their blustering shyster lawyer, Perry Mason knew that there was more involved than Clinker, the cat. He was right. Before long, he found himself involved in two murders and a spurious honeymoon. The district attorney grew nasty. Perry Mason found himself on the spot, and the spot getting hotter.
