Wreath For Rebecca by Carter Brown

With her stems she expected orchids...then came the "personal delivery".....


Rebecca was a magician and someone had plans for her to do the disappearing act. She asked Bill Cameron to protect her. Brother, when Bill met her sister he needed some protection himself. Bill had to get away from her before the curvacious magician went up in smoke. So there Bill was in a house of screwballs trying to find out just who had ordered the coffin.

  1. Scott - What a classic '50s cover! And an interesting premise, too.
