About this book

**Cool & Lam Mystery #26** (1965) Neither Clayton Dawson nor his tale of wild-child daughter Phyllis and a hypothetical hit-and-run while driving drunk quite rings true. And Dawson makes no secret of the fact that full disclosure on his part could put Cool and Lam in a legal bind. In the course of his visit, however, Dawson has piqued Donald Lam's professional pride to the point where there's no question of declining the case. Except, sometimes, even the brainiest of investigators can underestimate the duplicity of his clients. Not to mention their associates. Suddenly, Lam's PI license and his freedom are both on the line.

Erle Stanley Gardner (July 17, 1889 – March 11, 1970) was a prolific American author. A former lawyer, he is best known for the Perry Mason series of legal detective stories, but he wrote numerous other novels and shorter pieces and also a series of nonfiction books, mostly narrations of his travels through Baja California and other regions in Mexico. The best-selling American author of the 20th century at the time of his death, Gardner also published under numerous pseudonyms, including A. A. Fair, Carl Franklin Ruth, Carleton Kendrake, Charles M. Green, Charles J. Kenny, Edward Leaming, Grant Holiday, Kyle Corning, Les Tillray, Robert Parr, Stephen Caldwell, and once as the Perry Mason character Della Street ("The Case of the Suspect Sweethearts").
