O knihe
A RUSH HENRY MYSTERY #4: He had been shot. He was in Des Moines, Iowa. He was a private detective from Chicago, and his name was Rush Henry. But all this meant nothing to the man on the hospital bed. His only memory was of a quiet tree-lined street and a solitary figure approaching. So began the strangest case in Rush Henry's career, a case apparently blocked at every turn by the detective's amnesia. Returning to Chicago he learned from his secretary, Gertrude, that he had been retained by a mysterious client who had never reappeared and whose name Rush had never mentioned. Pappy Daley of the Express helped Rush to identify the client as the millionaire George Marshall Simon, whose reunion with his long lost daughter, Ruth, had been a front page feature six months earlier. And now Simon himself was dead, the victim of an automobile crash that seemed more than an accident. Why had Rush gone to Des Moines, and what secret had he once known which marked him for death? Was the girl, once called Ruth Carr, really Ruth Simon? Back in Iowa, later in Tulsa and rural Oklahoma, finally in Chicago, and always with a killer at his heels, Rush sought the answers. A characteristic fast-moving Rush Henry mystery, culminating in the adroit trapping of the killer and the exposure of an amazing "triple cross."
