SOMETHING TO HIDE

Four short and two long-short stories take care of sudden death in sharp plotting and smooth narration. Whether it is a charlatan who twists circumstances to fatten his wallet or Col. Gethryn of British intelligence ferreting out a series of women's murders, or a husband who plots his wife's death to look like attempts on his own, or a killer protected by more killings or a cop helped by fate in apprehending a child-slayer -- they all rank high in interest and adept crime handling. Crime Club.
