editions Age 23, dark hair, blue eyes and a lovely, perfect size six. That is Margie Beck, a model for M.P. (for Marvin Potnik) Creations, a high-class 7th Avenue creator of women's ensembles. Margie is also the charming, wacky innocent who does not court trouble but who has trouble thrust upon her. And oh what trouble. It begins the day she inadvertently walks off with a $17,000 mink coat and a $90,000 bracelet belonging to the wife of the very wealthy Republican Governor of New York State. Her day also includes Joey Montoso, a Cleveland torpedo who knows a good mink coat when he sees one; three hoodlums from the Dravinian Embassy who understandably mistake Margie for an oil-rich countess; and General Cadmium Alexander, a stocky, scheming, pop-eyed would-be killer who would shoot Margie if he could adjust the silencer to his 706 Luger. And then there are Margie's rescuers, her 245-pound behemoth of a boyfriend who is terrified of his own strength, and a brilliant young dress designer whose wits make up for his lack of brawn. All in turn are pursued by the ineffable Police Commissioner Comaday and District Attorney Larry Cohen. How Margie's rescuers save Margie and what happens when Margie walks into the Governor's apartment with his wife's mink coat and bracelet make up the exciting denouement of this witty, wry novel. If you are already a fan of E.V. Cunningham's girls, Margie will be a delightful addition to your collection. And if this is your first Cunningham adventure, prepare yourself for a rollicking good time. from the dust jacket of the 1966 Morrow first edition Top Alice Cynthia Helen Lydia Margie Millie Penelope Phyllis Sally Samantha Shirley Sylvia Sally A Novel Wm. Morrow & Co. New York, 1967 for Paul R. Reynolds editions translations Frank Gonzalez, a tough, darkly handsome cop first sees Sally on his way to work. Her face seems dull, flat, frightened. Then, suddenly, she runs and when Gonzalez catches her he knows that he is right, that she is filled with a stupefying fear. Finally the voice comes. "What," she asks, "are you going to do with me?" So begins a day of terror for Sally Dillman, a lovely young schoolteacher, who has mistaken Detective Gonzalez for an unknown assassin she hired to commit murder, her own. For Detective Gonzalez who works out of New York City's 19th Precinct it is the start of a deadly duel with a crazed, professional gunman. Gonzalez knows that the anonymous killer will not rest until he has fulfilled his contract to murder Sally, who now desperately wants to live. For Sally and Gonzalez, alien to each other and the city that has brought them together, this day is invested not only with fear but with a searching, growing love. Sally, who comes from a small town in New York State, is white, Presbyterian, helpless and alone. Gonzalez, a man of deep warmth and anger, proudly Puerto Rican, Catholic, still views himself as an outsider in the brutal jungle that reared him. As the day progresses, Gonzalez, the cop, must use the woman he has come to love as human bait to draw out the killer and destroy him. The denouement is inexorable and chilling. In this swift-paced, warmly moving novel, E.V. Cunningham, the creator of a gallery of fascinating women, changes pace from the light to the serious to bring you one of his most fascinating tales. from the dust jacket of the 1967 William Morrow first edition translations 1970.

Top Alice Cynthia Helen Lydia Margie Millie Penelope Phyllis Sally Samantha Shirley Sylvia Samantha A Novel Wm. Morrow & Co. New York, 1967 To the memory of Nat Goldstone, good friend editions translations As Detective Sergeant Masao Masuto of the Beverly Hills Police Force drives toward the great antebellum-type house on North Canon, he thinks of his friend Al Greenberg, a famous producer. He recalls how far Greenberg had traveled, from the anonymous, crowded world of Bensonhurst in Brooklyn to the great house and the dreams and dolce vita of Hollywood. Now Al Greenberg is dead. Almost from the moment his body is found in his Beverly Hills bedroom, a coterie of top film stars and executives suspect that they are marked for murder. The killer announces to one and all that her name is Samantha. Eleven years earlier a girl named Samantha – then one of thousands of young women seeking fame and stardom – was raped by half a dozen young men on a Hollywood set. The bait was the promise of a part in a TV show. She did not get the part and was never seen again. Now, one by one, the very same men who participated in the rape are meeting violent deaths. It is up to Detective Masao Masuto to stop the killings and catch the killer. A Buddhist, aloof yet involved, a man of simple yet sophisticated tastes, Masuto must overcome the crass Hollywood world where a Nisei is still cruelly taunted. And Detective Masuto must decide, too, whether one of the beautiful, acid-tongued wives of those slated to die is Samantha. A thriller calculated to bring you an interlude of fast-paced suspense, Samantha follows in the high-heeled footsteps of such favorites as Sally, Margie, Helen and Penelope. from the dust jacket of the 1967 William Morrow first edition translations 1986.

Morrow & Co. New York, 1968 For Judy; she knows why editions Begin with a possible kidnapping by the head of the Mafia. Add a dating machine that upsets the laws of logic but not love. Toss in a robbery whose daring boggles the mind. Then pepper once over lightly with murder. And you have the basic ingredients for a wacky, fun-filled adventure. The madness begins when Harvey Krim, the world's smartest and tightest insurance investigator, is ordered to find Cynthia Brandon, the daughter of the world's meanest near-billionaire. Cynthia's father has insured his daughter for one million dollars in case she is kidnapped and for another million if she is killed. To locate Cynthia, Harvey turns to Lucille, a librarian at the New York Public Library and a Radcliffe graduate whose measurements are as impressive as her I.Q. The chase begins with Harvey leading the way (so he thinks) and Lucille pursuing Harvey (which is what Lucille had in mind all along). On the way they run into a gathering of flower people in Central Park, an Italian count, the head of the Mafia, Lieutenant Rothschild of the New York Police Department, and a jolly gang of Texas thieves and murderers whose two ambitions in life are to take over the Mafia and steal a priceless Rembrandt from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, one of New York's most closely guarded treasure houses. Like Samantha, Margie, Lydia, Penelope, et al, Cynthia is a rollicking roller coaster of a story. from the dust jacket of the 1968 Morrow first edition translations 1968.

New York, 1973 For Louis Untermeyer Dear friend, gentle critic and wisest of all young men editions translations Al Brody was not born for danger. "I am," he says. "a flak, a middle-aged, overweight public relations man." Al Brody operates in Hollywood. He has known the famous -- movie stars and U.S. senators -- and the infamous -- other movie stars and senators. The most dangerous thing Al Brody ever did was cross the street. Then fate took hold of Brody, the man everybody liked and trusted. It all began in a most commonplace fashion: Al Brody decided to divorce his philandering wife. Then he made a startling discovery: he was in love with his beautiful assistant, Millie. Their idyll was filled with passion. But suddenly, and at first inexplicably, Al Brody's world turned into a nightmare. The corpse of a man Al befriended disappeared, then reappeared. His life mysteriously threatened, Brody, with Millie at his side, found himself involved in one of the biggest crimes of the century. The denouement is both shocking and chilling. Take a dose of harmless terror. Read Millie. from the dust jacket of the 1973 William Morrow first edition translations 1973. La poudre aux yeux .
