Spine slightly slanted, a little edge wear and rubbing. Ex-library with stamps and writing inside covers and on all edges. Otherwise a nice copy. ; Ex-Library; 6¾" - 7¾" Tall; 216 pages; "It was better than a hotel, this anonymous room on a secluded side street of a small country town. No register to sign, no questions asked, and for five bucks a man could have three hours of undisturbed, illicit lovemaking. "Then one evening a man with a knife turned the love nest into a death chamber. The carpet was soaked with blood - but where was the corpse? "Meanwhile, a beautiful, promiscuous woman is missing - along with the bundle of cash she'd had in her pocket. The truth behind it all will keep even veteran mystery fans guessing through the very last page. ".
