Robert Colby - The Quaking Widow краткое содержание
Burt Keating had been trying to make the acquaintance of his pretty red-headed neighbor but he wasn’t getting very far until the day she escaped from a strange roadside encounter. For when it turned out that murder had resulted from the affair, she threw herself hysterically into Burt's arms, pleading for his help. <P> It seems she had inherited a sealed box, whose contents were entirely unknown. Certain parties wanted that box badly. They had offered her a fortune – or sudden death. <P> Burt knew then that chivalry can go too far, for there was no longer any way out once he’d tangled with THE QUAKING WIDOW.
