FORTY WHACKS

Publisher: Morrow

Smooth, but not exceptional, murder manoeuvres when Humphrey Campbell, private detective, undertakes to solve the murder of a wealthy, newspaper-owning woman to protect his client, her son-in-law, first suspect. Family and friends on one side, political stakes on the other and much good herring bait for the reader. Fair.
