Beschreibung
Murder in the Tomb is a unique adventure in mystery stories by a newcomer in the field of detective-mystery fiction; but the reader who starts the story will not be able to lay the book aside until he has read to the final page.

The novel’s action is set in the city of Minneapolis during the summer of 1932. Howard Ralston, millionaire antiquarian, defies fate by bringing into his home three menaces: a Borgia poison ring, a Chinese vengeance dagger, and the mummy of Serapion, one-time Imperator of the Brothers of Karnak.

Murder results. The corpse and the mummy vanish, greatly to the annoyance of Detective Hal Denny. Benjamin Butler Bailey, young private investigator—of a type new to fiction—is called in. He and Hal Denny, despite their continued disagreements, finally solve the crime—one of the most baffling in police records.

The reader of Murder in the Tomb will find in this story a fast moving plot, high-running suspense, vivid characterization, and a surprise ending that satisfies.

Murder in the Tomb was published in 1937. More information on Coachwhip Publications' mystery reprints can be found at [...].
