Walk the Dark Streets - Paperback

WALK THE DARK STREETS

The night maid finds Janice Morel's body lying in her blood-soaked bed, stabbed to death. Lieutenant Hagen assumes that Harry Chapel must be the murderer. After all, he was one of her lovers, and he had previously served time for killing his wife. Why look further? But Captain Birge is not one to jump to conclusions. Morel had been blackmailing a lot of men. Maybe one of them caught up with her.

There's Joe Marco, the shady owner of Club Trinidad, where Morel worked. And the couple down the hall, Jean and Freddie-Freddie might be blind, but he gets around the building very well. Birge knows that Morel was no angel, but who hated her enough to plunge a knife into her self-serving heart?
