Publisher's Synopsis
STRIP FOR MURDER
Mark Bellew presents himself as a Theatrical Representative, but what he really does is supply strippers for private parties. Years ago he made a mistake, and one of his girls was raped, then killed herself. He got out of the business for a while, but realizing that this is the only business he knows, he now keeps a small office just off Wilshire Boulevard. But someone who knows about his past is now sending him threatening letters. The only person Bellew can ask to investigate these letters is Ed Warne, an insurance adjustor who shares the upper floor with him. Warne agrees to do some checking but gets more than he bargains for-because whoever is writing the letters has now committed murder. And who knows how far they'll go to settle this old score.
Also included are two Dolores Hitchens stories from the pages of Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine.
