DEATH AND THE JOYFUL WOMAN
By
The Death Mark (1960) centered on a youngster; here 14 year old Dominic Felse is the son of a county C.I.D. and runs counter to his father's police strictures. For Dominic champions Kitty Norris with a teen-age loyalty, works for her innocence when she is faced with murder. The older Feise stays on the trail, works over his boy's reluctant admissions -- and, Kitty saved, Dominic achieves an almost adult status. Tidy.
