Quaking Widow

Bok av Robert Colby
Her fortune was the price on her headBurt Keating had been trying to make the acquaintance of his pretty red-headed neighbor, but he wasn't getting very far - until the day she escaped from a strange roadside encounter. For when it turned out that murder had resulted from the affair, she threw herself hysterically into Burt's arms, pleading for his help.It seems she had inherited a sealed box, whose contents were entirely unknown. Certain parties wanted that box badly. They had offered her a fortune - or sudden death.Burt knew then that chivalry can go too far, for there was no longer any way out once he'd tangled with the quaking widow.
