Murder Makes a Deadline (formerly: The Dark Page)

[light edgewear only, tiny split in binding at top front hinge]. (Bestseller Mystery, No. B143) Series About as nice a copy of this title (or any in the cheaply-produced and very wear-prone "Bestseller Mystery" series, for that matter) as you're likely to find. Contemporaneous digest-size reprint of Fuller's breakthrough novel, a slam-bang mystery set in the New York tabloid milieu where the screenwriter/director had cut his pulp-narrative teeth. The book was filmed as SCANDAL SHEET by Phil Karlson in 1952, while Fuller himself was simultaneously at work on his own personal paean to the newspaper biz, PARK ROW. This was the only printing of "The Dark Page" under this alternate title.
