Murder is the Pay-Off
by Leslie Ford
When an innocent young woman finds herself
knee-deep in gambling— and up to her beautiful neck in debts— there’s apt to be
trouble… And trouble is what Janey Blake had plenty of. She had written a pile of bad checks. And she
was fighting to keep her husband from the arms of another woman… But other people had trouble too. Doc Wernitz,
for example. He was afraid of something. And apparently he had reason— for one
night someone bashed in his skull…
That was the same night that Janey hit her
first jackpot in months— and found a gilded coin that a desperate killer would
stop at nothing to retrieve.
