New York: Ballantine Books. Very Good+. (1953) (1981) 1993. 1st Ballantine Books Edition. Mass Market Paperback. Slight spine crease. 244 pages. A Perry Mason Mystery, No. 43.

It all adds up to a whirlwind working weekend for Mason: if he cant get the goods -- and the girl -- by Monday morning when the gavel falls, so will the ax... .
