Death of a Busybody
by Dell Shannon

Publisher:  Mystery Guild / Doubleday Book & Music Clubs, Inc.
Copyright:  1988

Book Club Edition

Margaret Chadwick seemed to have everything -- good looks, more money than she knew what to do with, and a pedigree to rival a princess.  Margaret, however, had one serious flaw:  she was a chronic do-gooder who insisted on prying too deeply into the lives of the "unfortunates."  She was such a malicious busybody that hardly a tear was shed when her body was found in the freight yards -- neatly strangled and minus a single clue.

When Los Angeles Police Department Lieutenant Luis Mendoza takes the case, he's staggered by the havoc the woman has wrought:  pitting husbands against wives, children against parents, and strewing seeds of jealousy, suspicion, and hatred wherever she went.

This long out-of-print treasure by Dell Shannon is sure to delight admirers of Mendoza, Shannon's popular series detective -- showing off his brilliant technique to solve a baffling crime, as strange and shocking as any in police annals.

Condition:  Used.  Hardcover.  Dust cover is lightly discolored and shows shelf wear and creasing.  Pages are tanning from age.  Previous owner's "Library Of" stamp is on the front endpaper.
