Publication: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1941, New York

First edition. Former owner's small embossed name stamp on front fly leaf, else a fine copy in dust jacket with minor wear to the head of spine. A mid-western specialty shop began to blackmail indiscreet husbands who bought gifts for their lady friends. They did this by adding hundreds and even thousands of dollars to the bills run up by the ladies. The wealthy wife of one of the unfortunate gentlemen hired Tony Hunter when an unpaid bill for a mink coat and a few other trifles arrived at her home, quite accidentally, of course, and to her attention.. Before it was over Tony had walked into one murder and had a second one literally dumped in his lap.
