- Synopsis
- The Parachute Murder, first published in 1933, is a classic ‘golden-age’ murder mystery, opening with a unique twist (from the dust-jacket): “MURDER in the air! The body of a popular Broadway star is found in an Ohio field, under an opened parachute, with a bullet through his heart. Police of two states find themselves up a blind alley, and the New York District Attorney calls in a new type of amateur detective—Kirk Kemerson, character actor, who becomes speedily involved in a baffling mystery, complicated by a second murder and a kidnapping. Studying the mind, habits, life and character of the murdered star as he would study a “character” part in a play, Kemerson solves the mystery in a thrillingly novel and dramatic denouement ... A murder mystery of a new type to test the ingenuity of detective novel addicts!”
