Blurb: 
They called their town "the hellhole of all creation," and they were right. The Chief of Police could have given the Gestapo lessons in coercion. The town's leading citizen was waiting to be murdered. His beautiful, thrill-seeking wife was involved with every corrupt schemer in sight. And murder was almost a commonplace event! — ~ ~~ ~ — Then Mike Shayne arrived. He was a temporary citizen who planned some permanent changes, if he could stay out of the crowded cemetery.
