SAID THE SPIDER TO THE FLY

by Richard Shattuck ‧ RELEASE DATE: May 12, 1944

Curious happenings, and bright banter for the unheroic saga of Rocky Smith, gunned for by unknown assailants on a plane flight west, and saving his skin -- in theory -- by confessing to the murder of a Merman girl. Not taken too seriously by the sheriff, Rocky helps along with the investigation among the eccentric Frys, finds clues to some valuable oils, escapes a lynching, and gets clear for a more peaceful life in the Navy. Engaging foolery.
