by Michael Kurland (Author)

Synopsis

Fine and Dandy chorine Lydia Laurent's strangled, nude body, accompanied by two complete suits of clothing, has been found in Central Park, and now Two-Headed Mary and Billie Trask are missing too. Since the police are as helpless as they always are in 1935, it falls to New York World columnist Alexander Brass and his cheerfully wide-eyed sidekick Morgan DeWitt to dig up the truth.

Michael Kurland writes a brilliant period piece that fans of the classic thirties mystery will simply devour. The inclusion of famous people adds a humorous but authentic touch to a fabulous whodunit. - Midwest Book Review
