NIGHTMARE IN PINK
by John D. MacDonald
That Harry O-ish beach bum Travis McGee comes to New York to straighten out Nina Gibson, the grieving kid sister of his disabled vet buddy Mike. Was her fiance accidentally killed by muggers after all. . . or was he onto the siphoning of the Armister family's 70-million-dollar fortune? Tray's wholehearted involvement with Nina proves to be a mindblower even before he finds himself a patient in a private clinic specializing in lobotomies. The pink perfume lingers on and McGee's in his prime in this 1964 reissue.
