Book Description
Dan Turner, Hollywood Detective, gets caught in the middle of some jealous lovers and some double crossed deals and barely makes it out alive. Jealous actors, big time producers, even some members of the production crews get caught up by the green eyed monster. Pistol-Packing Premiere (1944) – Homicide is seldom advertised in advance. It just doesn’t make good publicity when a million-buck Western is having its premiere. And that’s why Dan Turner was here in the town of Purgatory — to see that “Hell-Town Man-Law” entered the world without benefit of bloodshed Chapter II A Wanted Man Chapter III Too Late Chapter IV Cue For Chaos Chapter V “It’s a Lie!” Chapter VI No Possible Motive Chapter VII The Face in the Flames Chapter VIII The Trap Is Set Chapter IX Too Bad! Murderer’s Error (1942) – When a woman hits the top in Hollywood, she becomes the target for envy, jealousy, hate, and gossip. And that’s how it was with Beryl Bannock. When her secretary was killed, Dan realized that her enemies were playing for keeps and that his job of bodyguarding was not going to be all the fun that it promised to be. Murder on the Sound Stage (1937) – One movie murder leads to another, and Dan Turner finds more danger than assistance from the girls in the case! Chapter I. The Lady Comes Clean Chapter II. Death in a Fog Chapter III. Look for the Women Chapter IV. A Fee for Service Chapter V. Red Hair — Henna! Chapter VI. Death Strikes Again Chapter VII. The Cutie from Trenton Chapter VIII. The Secret of Infra-Red Chapter IX. Synthetic Movies Chapter X. The Scene Is Set Chapter XI. The End of the Round-Up Chapter XII. The Flash in the Fog Chapter XIII. Blonde Bait

Dan Turner deals with the usual assortment of lowlifes in Hollywood: actors, directors, producers, agents, thieves, blackmailers and murderers. Dead Heat (1944) – The cash customers paid plenty out to watch her emote on the screen. They looked upon her as a brunette angel, but there were a lot of substantial citizens in Hollywood who knew Linda for a rat. Broken Melody (1942) – Nothing scalds Dan Turner so much as a threatening note. When there’s geetus in a case, and when there’s a little songbird like Chiquita in the picture, nobody’s going to tell Dan to layoff, and get away with it! Focus On Death (1944) – They were making a cowboy picture, and of course the Indians’ arrows had all been blunted. Nevertheless it was an arrow with sharpened tip that came out of the welter of battle to kill the lovely star! Dead Man’s Guilt (1943) – Everybody knew Kilgore had been killed trying to escape from San Quentin. Yet now this girl, who knew all the facts in the case, pleads with Dan to save her from the dead man! Wired Alibi (1948) – The victim was no longer alive to deny or confirm his murderer but Homicide Donaldson was trying to finger Dan Turner for the kill—because in a Sunset Strip gin mill the Ace private eye had uttered public threats to feed the victim crooner a load of venom. . . it was evident that Dan was in a king-size jack-pot! Chapter I Chapter II – Dust on Her Heels Chapter III – Twice-Made Goat Chapter IV – Not A Joy Ride Chapter V – Holes for a Head Chapter VI – The Clay Pigeon Flies
