Elliot Paul - Mayhem in B-Flat
Bantam Books 850, 1950
Cover Artist: Robert Skemp

Rough, Tough and Bawdy
Here is a rip-roaring, free-wheeling murder yarn about a missing violin, a sharpshooting lady pianist, an amateur sleuth, a gang of depraved thugs, a violent artist, a gross of deadly tarantulas, kidnappers, gendarmes, drunkards, degenerates, street fights, waterfront brawls, chorus girls, cocottes, madams and - girls... dozens of them. All winding up in a neck-breaking, glass-shattering, champagne drenched free-for-all in a riverfront dive.
