Murder in False Face George Childerness

Boy meets girl -- over a roulette table in a high class joint. The boy is Chet Phelps, hardboiled, fast-thinking reporter. The girl is Gail Dillon, a pin-up blonde with boudoir eyes. She's the percussion cap that sets off a charge of dynamite, and the resulting emotional explosion shatters hearts, lives and headlines. So, before the smoke is out of his eyes, Chet finds himself involved in murder up to and over his ears -- and in an unbelievable world where murder-for-breakfast-guys and midnight-supper-club gals send him guilt-edged invitations to the electric chair!
