Book Description
Chester Cain, gunman and gambler, arrives at Paradise Palms for a well-earned vacation.The City Administrator, Ed Killcann, has other ideas and, using Miss Wonderley, a blonde stray, as bait, traps Cain into a murder frame-up. Killcann not only misjudges his man, he also misjudges Miss Wonderley, who turns against him and teams up with Cain. From then on the action, punctuated by gunfire, moves like an express train, with a spectacular jail-break which is probably one of the most exciting sequences James Hadley Chase has yet written.
