Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Tough, sardonic, and steeped in the smoke-and-whiskey atmosphere of postwar noir, Creature of Sin is a raw, fast-paced thriller where every kiss could be a setup and every ally the next enemy.When nightclub singer Sheila Thomson is found dead among the river willows, ex-Marine-turned-private investigator Roscoe Todd becomes the police's prime suspect. To clear his name, Todd dives into Newport's underworld of crooked gamblers, call girls, and small-time hoods-and finds himself chasing a killer even more dangerous and desperate than he is.The deeper he digs, the uglier it gets: a crime syndicate running the city's rackets, a socialite with lethal appetites, and a secretary guarding secrets forged in war. Each lead draws Todd closer to the truth-and to a trap set by someone who always seems one move ahead.Alfred B. Glaser (1916-1983) was a pulp-novelist, WWII U.S. Army first lieutenant, and later lecturer and self-help instructor based in Riverside, California. He authored paperback originals such as Creature of Sin (1960) and Platinum Blonde (1962), before developing the "Modern Human Comprehension" course series and publishing his own tabloid-style newspaper across Southern California.
