Murder Does Light Housekeeping

Murder follows murder in Mrs. Meyer's light housekeeping apartments. Eighteen-year-old Jane Robbins tells the story, aided by comments from Inspector Burke, who developed a fondness for Jane's coffee and a habit of using her as a ready listener-or is he just keeping an eye on a suspect? Another resident of the building, a young reporter named Riley, discovers an interest in crime detection and his pretty neighbor simultaneously. After the last murder, a checkup of the clues and suspects reveals a knotty problem. Jane's kitchen experience may keep her out of the electric chair, but she might just end up as the killer's next target . . .



Murder Does Light Housekeeping was published in 1941.
