Author: GRUBER, Frank
Title: Beagle Scented Murder
Description: New York, Rinehart & Company, 1946. Hardcover. 12mo. Blue/grey cloth with red spine lettering and decoration, pictorial price-clipped dust jacket. 188pp. Decorative endpapers. Near fine/very good. Jacket lightly edgeworn. A tight, quite handsome first edition of this whodunit introducing "two of the most upright and fearless heels ever to run a detective agency, Otis Beagle and Joe Peel" -- perhaps a potential series that never took off, for no other Beagle titles ensued from Gruber's prolific pen. Gruber (1904-69) was a prolific pulp fiction writer who also penned detectives and Westerns. Fun and funky front jacket image depicts a closeup of a sinister cigar-chomping chap whose chin-clutching hand bears a sparking diamond ring. .
