AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'WTHEN Larry Kent, the private investigator, gets an S.O.S. from a lovely lass, he races to her apartment in time to knock her would-be murderer unconscious with the butt of his gun.
'While he is in the next room pouring out a drink, Maggie gives the semi-conscious gangster another nudge with a pistol butt and he is dead. But Maggie hadn’t meant to kill him. Her fiance had been murdered a fortnight before, and Maggie is in the middle of telling Kent about that murder and her half-murder and the motives when murder No. 2 takes place—Maggie is stabbed to death.
'Kent is hard put to it to save himself from being bumped off, but he does so with the connivance of Inspector Daniels and at the same time traps the murderer.'
