Stahl-Ricco | Aug 15, 2023 |    ) jimifenway | Sep 6, 2022 | A man going by Mr. Smith is searching for his missing wife, he comes to Donald Lam and his partner Bertha Cool for help. Secrets, mystery, intrigue abound as Lam and Cool track down the mystery behind this disappearance. Written in 1940, with engaging dialog moving at a fast pace. Lam and Cool are likable, they work well with each other. Bertha is a bold woman, ahead of her time. Lam is great with the ladies. A perfect pair to uncover a decades old mystery. I highly recommend Turn on the Heat to those who enjoy 'pulp fiction'.

Among those books were the 29 cases of the brash, irresistible detective team of Bertha Cool and Donald Lam.

Now, we're bringing you the book Gardner wrote to replace it, often considered the best in the series: TURN ON THE HEAT. Hired by a mysterious "Mr. Smith" to find a woman who vanished 21 years earlier, Donald Lam finds himself facing a sadistic cop, a desperate showgirl, a duplicitous client, and one very dogged (and beautiful) newspaper reporter �?? while Bertha Cool's attempts to cut herself in on this lucrative opportunity land them both hip-deep in mur Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

That is the thing that grates on me for all these books so far!
But, I have "Fools Die on Friday" on my to-read shelf, so I'm not totally annoyed... (
