Description:
<DIV><b>On vacation in Hollywood, </b><b>Miss Withers </b><b>gets a job—and a case</b></div><DIV><BR>Hildegarde Withers—schoolteacher and occasional detective—has just finished planning her grand European tour when Germany invades Poland. Not wishing to join the international conflict, she books a ticket to Hollywood, trading the Louvre and the Vatican for the Brown Derby and La Brea tar pits. She has only been in Los Angeles three days when she’s offered a job in pictures. Not as a starlet—Miss Withers is no ingénue—but as a technical adviser to a film version of the Lizzie Borden story. The job is perfect, for no one knows murder like Miss Withers.</div><DIV> </div><DIV>On her first day at Mammoth Studios, the screenwriter in the next office dies of an apparent broken neck. To understand why, Miss Withers must contend with a film producer who makes her third graders look like grown-ups—and a killer every bit as vicious as Lizzie Borden herself.</div><DIV> </div><DIV><i>The Puzzle of the Happy Hooligan</i> is part of the Hildegarde Withers Mysteries series, which also includes <i>The Penguin Pool Murder </i>and <i>Murder on the Blackboard</i>. </div>
