PUZZLE FOR WANTONS

By

Pub Date: Sept. 14th, 1945
Publisher: Simon & Schuster

A houseparty, reuniting three women (sitting out their divorces in Nevada) with their marital mistakes, provides a mess of trouble -- and murder -- in the home of their very rich hostess who thought the idea up. Iris and Peter Dulutn, of previous ""puzzles"", deal with domestic displacement and discord, three deaths and two attempts, and Irish brings home the solution to the police. Very bright talk for confusion which is pretty fancy -- but fun.
