Opis

Susan Yates, fashion designer, was called in by the district attorney's office to give an expert opinion in a murder case. Fingerprint men, photographers, detectives of every status and the assistant D. A. himself were working on the case, but there was one thing about the victim that brought them all up short-why would a fashionable young lady wear a decollete evening gown over long winter underwear? This was the way in which Prunella Parton was dressed when she was found murdered on an incoming ski train, and it was the reason for this peculiar garb that Susan Yates was called on to supply. Dressed to Kill is sophisticated and fast moving, with a humor both in dialogue and treatment which is distinctly of the present day and modern scene. An exceedingly complicated plot is handled with sureness and finesse. Dressed to Kill was first published in 1941. This edition includes an introduction by Curtis Evans.
