A young couple and their dachshund star in a stylish San Francisco–set Golden Age mystery of “high ingenuity” (The New York Times). Jack Ivers, a man-about-town with a taste for rich women, has been found dead in his bed. What’s particularly odd is that the chief suspect, a surgeon’s fashionable wife, claims that she spotted thirteen red tulips upon entering the victim’s home—that were somehow replaced with thirteen white tulips by the time she departed. It’s up to sleuthing spouses Jean and Pat Abbott to dig through the dead man’s questionable past and determine in whose heart a murderous passion blossomed . . . “Amusing and sophisticated.” —Daily Star “Smooth.” —Saturday Review “Brightly-told excitement, with good dressing and good food as you go along.” —Lady

“High ingenuity…splendid eating in San Francisco restaurants, and narrator Jean Abbott, always vividly observant of feminine fashions, this time finds that a fashion note is a vital clue.”—The New York Times Jack Ivers, an urban sophisticate with a particular fondness for wealthy women, lies peacefully in his bed, dead. This scenario is greatly convenient for the woman who finds him, as she was on the scene to kill him herself. More curious, the thirteen red tulips she noticed entering Ivers’ home had been replaced by thirteen white tulips before she made her exit. A number of people had good reason to want Jack Ivers dead, and naturally it falls to Jean and Pat Abbott to solve the confounding case. “Amusing and sophisticated.”—The [London] Star “Fashion hints all over place. Smooth.”—The Saturday Review “…has an authentic-seeming San Francisco background for the activities of its two happily married young sleuths and their dachshund, and is strong on personal relations, colour, dress and dialogue, and very nearly as strong on clues.”—The Sphere “Brightly-told excitement, with good dressing and good food as you go along.”—Lady
