Make Way for Murder
She had the kind of beauty no man could resist, even an ecy-veined private eye. Trouble was, Juanita Toy gave Peter Hunter more than her warm, exotic flesh. Her gifts included money – and a murder rap!<P> Maybe Pete should have stuck to less dangerous women, like gorgeous Pat Laine, so big and so willing, so blonde all over.

He was playing for love, for glory – and for keeps!

The Great Van Suttart Mystery
The action of the story all takes place in New York, beneath the shadow of the Brooklyn Bridge. There, in an odd little shop with an extensive underground connection, once used to help escaping slaves, old Mr. Crabbe conducts his peculiar and illicit business, greatly helped by Jeremiad «Miad» Blake. This business of old Crabbe's—and the results it brings about—propel the hero to extraordinary lengths. <P> "On the whole, a fairly entertaining narrative. New York in the period immediately following the close of the Civil War is interestingly depicted, and the determined Miad Blake proves a likable and efficient hero." – Literary Digest
