Who was the enigmatic figure
on whom so much seemed to depend?
Here we go again with the pulp novels. I don't really know anything about this one, but I like the way it looks, as is the purpose of this series (e.g., shallow admiration). It was first published in July 1938; this is a 1956 edition by Hodder and Stoughton. Be assured that the "characters in this story are entirely imaginary and have no relation to any living person". Right-o I'm just curious if that's because the person in question (Mr. Zero) is dead?
A couple of close-ups on the smoking gun and the hydrangeas. Her cloak reminds me of Carmen Sternwood's in 'The Big Sleep'.
