A Shot in the Dark

Johnny Edwards is fishing when he gets Tony’s letter from Cuba. Tony is in trouble and urgently needs Johnny down in Havana. But Johnny stalls—ashamed to admit to his former war buddy that he has been living a life of indifferent ease and indulgence—and when he does arrive, he finds Tony has just been murdered. His boredom replaced with thoughts of revenge, Johnny decides to try and find the murderer himself. And that’s when he runs into Ellen McCarter—trim, slim, with sun-streaked hair—a helluva distraction. But not enough to sidetrack Johnny, who continues to follow the murderer’s trail up to Fort Myers, Florida...where the first person he runs into is slim, trim Ellen!
