"Hal Harrison and his orchestra The Harmony Men were one of the hottest new bands in the country. Their two night stand at the Crystal Gardens in San Francisco was going to be the biggest thing to hit that city in years. But when threats turn into reality during the first show when a rival band-leader is killed on stage in front of the entire audience the band seems headed for disaster unless Hal can prove he s innocent by finding the real killer aided by socialite Joan Paxton. Sudden Silence is a mystery in the tradition of the great 1930 s movies like The Thin Man, full of murder, music, and romance and punctuated with witty banter. The author, Cortland Fitzsimmons, wrote over a dozen mystery novels during the 30 s, a number of which were later turned into movies."--Resurrected Press. We have placed the dust jacket in a new clear (removable) Brodart sleeve to protect from further damage. N° de ref. del artículo ABE-1652304355165
