THE ACE OF SPADES
By
The second case of Lt. Luis Rodolfo Vincente Mendoza, of the L. A. police, develops through an over-heroin-ed death, the whereabouts of a vanished treasure of coins -- and an over-issue of dope pushing. A clutch of law-breaking brothers, a foreigner out to best local hoods, and an intermixture of Greeks, keep this on a thoroughly international breakthrough, with Luis protecting himself -- and his girl. Dizzying -- and note new publisher.
