Fast-paced pulp novel, interesting characters,

This review is from: Swing Low, Swing Dead: a Johnny Fletcher Mystery (Paperback)
I finished reading his short, fast-paced _Swing Low, Swing Dead_ Johnny Fletcher mystery and liked it. Gruber has a colloquial, breezy pulp prose style. Fletcher's wrestling sidekick, Sam Cragg, adds to the fun. This plot concerns a purloined rock-and-roll song titled "Apple Taffy". My paperback is a Belmont PBO without a publication date
included.

This was one of my father's favorate authers he wrote him a fan letter once but Frank Gruber had died. His widow Mrs.Gruber wrote back to him this was in 1975. They had a long frendship Mr.David A.Bates of Putnam,CT.(Blue Star Book Store)They wrote letters and fanzine artcules back and forth till the day she died. This was a favorate book of his he read this book so many times he had to replace it 4times. Enjoy. Dave Bates(1935to2004)RIP.
