“The Case of the Beautiful Widow”
From the back cover:
HUSH MONEY
Riley Wadell, private eye, was broke – as usual. A beautiful woman, accused of murdering her husband, begged him to hide her for two weeks before turning her over to the police. She offered him $15,000 for the job – he needed the dough – so he took it . . . and was tossed head-first into the most dangerous game of his life, playing hide-and-seek with a ruthless killer and the Los Angeles police!
“Outstanding . . . relentless speed and suspense.” – New York Times
