Condition: FINE. First printing. Novel by this award-winning mystery writer centered on the trial of Cully Paul King, a handsome black skipper of private yacht, who was arrested in a California coastal town for the strangulation murder and robbery of a woman he had hired to work onboard. "The prosecutor claims that the victim's jewel case which can't be found was King's motive for murder. The contents of the case mark one of the startling disclosures in the proceedings, most shedding merciless light on the people involved with the defendant. The judge, the opposing attorneys, the amorous court clerk - everyone has more at stake in the verdict than the defendant. All, for different reasons, want to control King's future. Only one realizes that ambition, making the final shocker in Millar's tautly constructed story." (PW Weekly) 323 pp. Very near fine in a like dustjacket.…

8vo. x, 242 pp. Figs., index. Cloth, dust-jacket; jacket with slight edge wear, but a very good copy. George Wells Beadle was an American geneticist. In 1958 he shared one-half of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Edward Tatum for their discovery of the role of genes in regulating biochemical events within cells. "Organisms' metabolismâ"the chemical processes within its cellsâ"are regulated by substances called enzymes. George Beadle and Edward Tatum proved in 1941 that our genetic codeâ our genes, govern the formation of enzymes. They exposed a type of mold to x-rays, causing mutations, or changes in its genes. They later succeeded in proving that this led to definite changes in enzyme formation. The conclusion was that each enzyme corresponds to a particular gene." â" Nobel Prize. Muriel Beadle was married to George Beadle.…
