As was common with the vast majority of pulp authors Erle Stanley Gardner, who is best known for 'Perry Mason', had a handful of names that he also wrote under, A A Fair being one of those. This book is one from the Cool and Lam Mystery series.
When a client approaches Cool to have his alibi checked to prove that he wasn't involved with a missing woman, Lam is called upon to do the investigation. The alibi checks out, but it is all a bit too pat for Lam, so he digs deeper. But little does Lam know what he will get involved in, as he gets caught up in murder, a frame-up, scams, illegal gambling, and a mobster. Will Lam be able to find out the truth and stay alive, and will he be able to make some money in the progress?
