"Four gorgeous women wrapped in one Christmas package ... Private eye Peter Chambers received the perfect Christmas gift for 'the man who has everything.' It was a murder case involving Gene Tiny (built in luscious bunches, beautifully spaced, with looks that stopped men colder than a .45 slug).. Stella Talbot (eighteen years old, but all woman, with a body that flicked at your libido) ... Gay Cochrane (married to someone she couldn't abide, but perfectly willing to put her ample charms at the right man's disposal) and Evelyn Dru (a bouncy blonde honey with eyes that lifted men out of their seats like a national anthem.) And in the same package was a dead man -- which made Pete's Christmas complete. It was murder wrapped in blackmail and tied with arson, and Pete had the time of his life breaking the case wide open."--

Laurel Dane was no angel. She’d changed men as often as she’d changed her hair color, and there was plenty in her past she’d like to forget. But no one deserved to be beaten to death, and private eye Ed Clive didn’t believe that her boyfriend had killed her. Pursuing her own lonely trail, he found out just how easily jealousy and twisted rage could turn a human being into a monster of violence. Originally published in 1944, this is Leigh Brackett’s unputdownable pulp fiction debut novel.
