(no dust jacket) [good sound copy, moderate wear to extremities, small puncture-tear in spine, one-time owner's signature and date on ffep]. Mystery novel featuring New York private investigator Henry (Hank) Hyer, the hard-boiled protagonist of nine novels by this author (an NYU professor and admirer of Dashiell Hammett) published between 1935 and 1943 -- a group of works referred to in Steel's entry in "Twentieth Century Crime and Mystery Writers" as an "extremely fine series," with the present volume singled out as "perhaps the finest." The plot concerns the investigation into the murder of a factory owner, and revolves around the role of unions in a struggle between labor and management.
