Mayhem in B-Flat (A Homer Evans Mystery)
Homer Evans is back. You remember Homer. The ever-calm, William Powell-ish sleuth of "The Mysterious Mickey Finn," and "Hugger Mugger in the Louvre" Homer and his incomparable girl friend, Miriam, the gun-totin', sharp-shooting gal from Montana. You'll find them at work and play again in Elliot Paul's Mayhem in B-Flat which has to do with the theft of a priceless Guarnerius violin, a huge dog, rival gangs, murders, tarantulas, dancing girls and loving ladies. Elliot Paul gives you plenty of laughs-and a bumper crop of homicide in this story that takes you from concert hall to cabaret to brothel, at racehorse speed. Even Homer has a hard time keeping up. Author Paul is a sly one. His quips are as fast as Miriam's lightning draw; his innuendos as innocent as a strip-teaser. If you're looking for deep-dyed detective problems, "Mayhem in B-Flat" is not for you. But if you want a hilarious evening, spend it with Homer, Miriam and the gang. You won't regret it. (Literary Guidepost, 1940)
