This is the first of two solo Bertha novels, as Donald is off fighting the Japanese in World War II (he participates off stage via a series of telegrams). Frank Sellers also makes his debut. The case itself is a tricky one that hinges in large part on a dubious will. In retrospect, it could have had a more satisfying ending. ( ) sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
Pertence a SérieCool and Lam (7)
A hot-headed PI's missing person case leads to murder in this mystery by the creator of Perry Mason and author of Owls Don't Blink. Bertha Cool and Donald Lam make for an unlikely pair of private detectives. She's a fifty-something-year-old widow built like a longshoreman with a mouth to match. Donald is a wiry ex-lawyer in his thirties with a face that's a magnet for fists. Fortunately, he's whip-smart. His brains have gotten him and his partner through the toughest of cases. However, with World War II on, he's recently enlisted in the navy, leaving Bertha flying solo with her next client . . . A blind beggar is searching for a young lady who disappeared after being hit by a car. Bertha's certain she can handle a missing person case on her own, especially after her client asks her to break a hundred-dollar bill. But when her search yields murder, Bertha is suddenly flying blind. Now she must quickly locate a killer before everything comes crashing down.
