Description: "Bertha laid down the law--no more of Donald's desperate gambles that had him skirting prison walls!  The Cool-Lam Agency was going back to a safe, sane business. with solid, substantial, citizens like Montrose L. Carson for clients.  All Carson wanted was the name of the person in his office who was passing on confidential information to business rival Herbert Jason Dowling.....

"The complexion of the case changed, however, when Dowling was found murdered at the Swim and Tan Motel--the same motel where two Peeping Tom incidents had been reported.  And oly Donald, with his affinity for long shots and playing tag with the police, would have thought of baiting a trap for a murderer with the liveliest, most irrepressible stripper ever to hit the boards."  164 pages.
