Südametu

Al Wheeler #16

by Carter Brown

Baari sisenenud advokaat Wallace J. Miller sureb enne baariletini jõudmist, langedes otse politseileitnant Al Wheeleri jalge ette. Päev hiljem lahkub sama ootamatult elavate kirjast seksikas Rita Keighley, olles vaid hetk varem avanud oma korteri ukse ...Al Wheelerile. Mõlema surma põhjuseks on eksootiline mürk kuraare.
Kas on vaid kokkusattumus, et mõrvatud kaunitari kallim, kes käis alles paar kuud tagasi Wallace J. Milleri abikaasalt abi otsimas, et teha lõpp oma pruudi ja advokaadi armusuhtele, on andekas keemis?
