DESCRIPTION - If you like fast-paced mystery, with a cast of picturesque characters moving across a modern newspaper-police background, this story is your dish. Dan Abel, handsome college halfback, has his own special reasons for joining the police force - and he doesn't live to tell them. He is reported a suicide, but 'Grid' Griddle, ace crime reporter, thinks otherwise and sets out to prove his hunch. With his friend and colleague, the incorrigible Carrigan, doing some classic legwork and investigation; with 'Grid' haunting the night spots, particularly the notorious Patent Leather Club, owned by the sinister Buzz Stevens, Czar of Night Town; and with the aid of lovely Miriam Warne, mysterious young heiress - as ruthless a ring of criminals as ever operated under the eyes of the law is run to earth, Here, in a rattling good story, you will find crime-corrupted politics, murder coldly and expertly executed, a crusading newspaper with an insatiable city editor, scintillating romance, high drama when least expected, and a puzzle that defies your wits from the word 'GO!' inventory #41491 Tape-Repaired Spine, But Book is Still Intact in Worn Wrappers.…

"Cover Illustration by Gerald Gregg. Back cover map of "Night Town/Scene of Murder," city in Mideast U.S."It's a light, slightly implausible, story-heavy but kind of entertaining urban mystery set in a nameless town somewhere on the east coast. The protagonist is a sort of hero reporter who seems to have extremely high status such that he can order chiefs of police around (this is the unrealistic part) named Grid. A young, promising police officer on the beat is shot in a doorway in Night Town, the bad part of town. The murder is made to look like a suicide, but Grid knows different and starts to nose around, unravelling a complex situation involving graft, kidnapping, drug pushing and a pretty large cast of characters." -- Olman's Fifty blog. Gregg, Gerald (illustrator). Book.…
