1950020092N.Y.: Popular Library 1950. 1st paperback edition October 1950. Good-girl cover art Vintage Paperback. Cover by Rudolph Belarski. Popular Library #286. Listed in Gary Lovisi's book: Dames Dolls & Delinquents: A Collector's Guide to Sexy Pulp Fiction Paperbacks. Reading crease else a bright tight copy with paper toning very minimal. The Murder of the Clergymans Mistress was the second of the Thatcher Colt mysteries. Thatcher Colt is the New York Police Commissioner. Police Commissioners do not usually involve themselves in the actual investigation of crime but Colt is the exception. The novel opens with the discovery of two bodies in a dinghy. One of the deceased is an Episcopal clergyman the other is an attractive young woman. Thatcher Colt wants to preserve the crime scene intact so he has the dinghy with the two bodies still in it transported to the city morgue. Colt is in possession of several important clues although they are clues that everybody else seems inclined to dismiss as being obviously of no importance. This is very much a story that adheres to the puzzle-plot formula. And the author proves to be very adept indeed at that formula. All Vintage Paperbacks come sealed in 2.5 mil plastic bag and taped closed with removable tape which will not tear the covers if it sticks to them when the book is removed. 1st Edition. Pictorial Wrappers. Near Fine. Illus. by Belarski Rudolph. Vintage Paperback. Popular Library Paperback
