They are classic killings, ranking among the most unusual and spectacular of all time. Also includes : The Case of the Scrambled Sleepers - when the lurid imagination of a tabloid reader set off an investigation of the death of Everett Applegate's 250-pound wife and revealed the extraordinary sleeping arrangements in their house; The Case of the Iron Victim - when, after failing with poisoned sardines, ground tin, auto anti-freeze and staged accidents, a group of slapstick assassins finally succeeded in killing an almost unkillable victim + much more. From the library of true-crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. V. lightly browned pp. o/w Vg+ with no creasing to covers.
