Sinossi

'The Strange Case of Cavendish' is a storyabout a spirited New York newspaperwoman caught between a shrewd lawyer, dangerous people, and Mexican bandits! The premise is clever and full of intriguing twists and turns.
Excerpt:
"For the second time that night, too, a picture rose before him, a picture of great plains, towering mountains, and open spaces that spoke the freedom and health of outdoor living. He had known that life once before, when he and Jim Westcott had prospected and hit the trail together, and its appeal to him now after three years of shallow sightseeing in the city was deeper than ever. "Good old Jim," he murmured, "struck pay-dirt at last only to lose it and he needs me. By George, I think I'll go."

    "Midnight what Happened," asked a policeman offhandedly of an oddly dressed man who looked like a stage magician in blue wearing a mask. 
    "Are you mad there was a school shooting," said Midnight looking slightly greenish. 
    "No I just got here," said the policeman, "is anyone else here?" 
    "Dante, and Dark Starlight," said Midnight offhandedly. 
    "Don't you mean Dark Star?" said the policeman. 
    "No Starlight she's Dante's wife the Marchioness of Mars," 
    said Midnight. 
    The policeman laughed. "The Martianess of Mars are you kidding me?" 
    "What's so funny about my title?" a tall black-haired masked woman in a black suit said. 
    "Dark Starlight I take it," said the policeman nervously. 
    "Yes," said the woman insulted. 
    "Nice to meet you where is your husband?" asked the policeman. 
    "The Marquess of Mars is inside the building," said Starlight.

    Decadence and murder found on the dark side of the big city pales in comparison to the freak show found by undercover US narcotics agent Bob Clark in The Carnival of Death. Clark's investigation begins with cocaine and leads to cold-blooded murder — the discovery of one, and then another, headless corpse. Who is behind the slaughter? There are plenty of distractions — bright lights and beautiful girls — but Clark better find the murderers fast. Because the next head that rolls could be his own.
