Dewey's Mourning After, which is the first paperback appearance of this novel. Corner crease to the Mourning After, and light stress marks to the spine, else a good copy of a scarce title. In Death House Doll, Mona Ambler sits on death row with a secret that she refuses to reveal ... even to Mike Duvall. Maybe Mona had shot and killed the jewelry salesman; maybe she was a thief; but she'd also been the wife of Mike's brother, and Mike just couldn't believe that Mona was guilty. As Mike investigates, it soon becomes apparent that Mona knows something that could blast the city wide open! Alive, she was worth a fortune .... Dead, she was a racketeer's life insurance! In Mourning After, Joe Spider must find Dolly Spangler. Not only is he sweet on the gorgious blonde, but he finds out that a couple of big-city goons are also after her. Soon Joe discovers that Dolly has a whole nightside to her life that nobody in town suspected. Price: USD 45.00 other currencies   order no. 1298    inquire
