Description
The famous trumpeter Johnny Sands returns to the stage. Thousands of fans gather to greet him at the concert hall doors. Five years ago Johnny left the stage—one of his fans took her own life in front of him, and he himself was blackmailed over it. It seemed that everything was already in the past, but the moment Johnny agreed to return, his best friend and manager are killed. The head of an advertising agency—Julian Quist, a successful businessman in life and, deep down, a detective—agrees to help Johnny and put an end to the renewed blackmail.
Hugh Penticost (pseudonym; real name Judson Philips) is one of the most well-known U.S. representatives of the “hard-boiled detective” style. For a long time, Philips was president of the Society of American Authors of adventure literature. Professional detectives are rarely the main characters in his works. Investigations of unusually tangled cases are handled by noble and selfless amateurs: journalists, artists, and even employees of an advertising agency—like, for example, in the offered story “To Kill and Stay” (“The Champagne Killer,” 1972).
