A Shapely Nymph Tangles With Temptation
Steve has kindly transcribed the first paragraph of this book:
“I was standing in front of the Herald and somebody fired a shot and I saw a fat man turn slowly on one heel and fall to the sidewalk. Before I could get to him a crowd had gathered and they pushed and shoved and yelled and a police whistle blew and brakes squealed as drivers skidded their cars to stop and have a look at what was going on. Those who got near the body stood and guzzled the sight. The fat man had a small blue hole in his head, and his mouth hung open and one eye looked right at you and the other was shut”
