Summaries

A gambler hires a detective to investigate when a murder is committed in his casino.

San Francisco private-eye T. N. Thompson (aka T.N.T., aka Mr. Dynamite), a reckless black-balled investigator who is given a police escort out of most towns, is hired by the owner of a casino to investigate the murder of a young man as he left the grounds. Before Thompson can solve the first murder, two more occur, and the police refuse to help him in his investigation of all three.—Les Adams <[email protected]>
