“Even to the Los Angeles police the tragedy seemed obvious: Hollywood art dealer Miriam Welles’s death was an accident – she was crushed by a runaway Rolls Royce in her garage. But just to put his mind at ease, her executor, Dade Cooley – a crusty old San Francisco lawyer – begins asking a few leading questions and soon uncovers a clear case of murder.”
“Dade comes up with some promising suspects – a list that widens to include the most prominent figures in the rich, glamorous and sometimes decadent world of Malibu and Los Angeles – until they, too, meet with gruesome fates.
“What really happened that rainy night in Miriam Welles’s garage? And what drove someone to murder – and to kill again and again?”
“Gene Thompson’s wit and style, his gift for creating characters, his surprising twists of plot that build to an unexpected climax – all these qualities have gone into making Murder Mystery one of the most ingenious and suspenseful crime bafflers in years.”
This was Gene Thompson’s second novel. His first was Lupe (1977). He was also a TV and radio show writer who wrote for shows such as Gilligan’s Island, The Lucy Show, The Beverly Hillbillies, Marcus Welby, M.D., and Columbo. He died at the age of 76 in 2001.
