THE FAST-ACTING, QUICK THINKING 1930S WOMAN PRIVATE EYE IS BACK! A generation or two ago, strong female private detectives were few and far between. Grace Culver of the Noonan Detective Agency is one of those few, and this red-headed investigative dynamo was (literarily) ahead of her time. Grace doesn't cower in the corner, waiting for some he-man to rescue her. She takes charge when she is on a case. Smart, cute, and full of fire, Grace Culver was a ground-breaking heroine who paved the way for today's female private eyes, such as Kinsey Millhone. The six stories in this collection are among the best of the Grace Culver adventures - but there are those who say that the best is yet to come. Roswell Brown was a pseudonym of Jean Francis Webb (1910-1991), a prolific author of mysteries, romances, gothics, novelizations, and non-fiction, including This Coffin Taken?, Somewhere Within This House, Carnavaron's Castle, The Craigshaw Curse, The Empty Attic, Roses from a Haunted Garden, and No Match for Murder, and novelizations of the move versions of Anna Lucasta, King Solomon's Mines and Little Women.
