The Velvet Target by Genevieve Holden, 1956
The Velvet Target by Genevieve Holden, 1956 Paperback
First paperback edition from Ace Books.
Eve Halsey, sure that her Aunt Blossom's new husband, John Lanham, is a Bluebeard, alerts detective White to her suspicions, and then when she is alone with Lanham wakes up to the unhappy truth that it is she- rather than Aunt Blossom will be his victim. Lanham's nephew, also a calculated casualty, shares her status and together they are almost able to escape- while white works on the outside to move in at the finish. A more than tense situation- and a bright tone to the dialogue.
Book is very nice with minor tanning of pages from age.
