SHE WAS VERY BEAUTIFUL . . . AND VERY DEAD
New York City Detective Nick Carter found the woman with a bullet in her head.
Had the waiter in the French café, Gaspard, killed Mrs. Jones? Or had Mr. Jones shot his wife?
The clues mount up for the famous detective.
But then who should show up on the scene but . . .
Another Mrs. Jones!
Before Sherlock Holmes, there was Nick Carter, an American solver of mysteries, whose adventures stretched from dime novels, to the pulps, to radio and the screen . . . and straight into paperbacks!
