Timberdick's First Case

Timberdick Mysteries #1

by Malcolm Noble

When the local CID loses interest in the murder of a young prostitute, Timberdick takes the case on. Not that she was a detective - it was none of her business really. She did it because no-one else thought a dead whore was important, and that made her angry.
