About this Item

1st edition, 1954, so stated. Publishers yellow cloth on boards with black lettering. Very monor soiling, pages age toned in dust jacket with some edge-wear and a tiny nicks at the foot of spine and at bottom of folds. Light soiling on rear panel. Unclipped dust jacket with $2.50 price, in protective mylar cover. His first and only mystery. Until the half-naked girl with the blue hair clawed and almost stabbed him, Ike O'Hara thought he was involved in a friendly little expose of the meat racket in order to make headlines to sell more papers. When Ike started asking some of his shadier friends for information, he got more than he bargained for. There was the matter of a grenade that just missed exploding in his lap. And, as if that weren't enough, four hoods with nothing but his death on their minds took him for a wild ride up the West Side Highway. But what really gave Ike O'Hara a nasty feeling in the pit of his stomach was reading his own obituary in a rival newspaper.
