Can ladies kill?
19.99 €
A classic hard-boiled detective story from the celebrated English writer. The fourth, fifth, and sixth novels about the investigations of FBI agent Lemmy Caution.
Can ladies kill?
When the FBI director received a letter from one Marella Thorensen hinting at crimes of national significance, he dispatched Lemmy Caution to solve the mystery. Arriving at the letter's author's house at the appointed time, Lemmy discovered the house empty, and Marella had mysteriously disappeared. This seemingly trivial matter will develop into a challenging investigation, during which Lemmy will encounter smugglers, assassins, the Chinese mafia, and deadly beauties.
Don't get me wrong
Two chemists, an Englishman and an American, have independently begun developing a poison gas capable of becoming a next-generation weapon. In such a situation, it seems logical to join forces to ensure rapid success. It's decided to house the chemists on a quiet hacienda in the Mexican outback. But soon the leader of a Chicago gangster gang learns of this...
You won't believe it!
The son of a Pittsburgh "steel king" goes missing. After some time, it becomes clear: this isn't just another escape by the young madcap from his parents' home, but a kidnapping, and a rather strange one at that. For some reason, the kidnappers are reluctant to name a ransom amount and don't even contact anyone. And then the daughter falls head over heels in love with a Russian count, a handsome man and a "real colonel," and goes to Paris to join her chosen one. It would seem like just another scandal in a noble family. But it's 1940, and the "steel king" is manufacturing weapons for England...
The novels included in this collection are published in new translations.
