Thomas B. Dewey

Only on Tuesdays: A Pete Schofield Caper

Carol Ann was very photogenic. Especially in certain pictures… But it was more than just a case of over-exposure. There was also a small matter of murder. For Pete Schofield, it was all in a day's – and night's – work. And very enjoyable work at that. Because Carol Ann was a cooperative subject, both on and off camera… "Thomas B. Dewey is one of detective fiction's severely underrated writers!" – Bill Pronzini
