Now a private detective, Kiley has agreed to investigate the provenance of a newly discovered manuscript. Lost for decades,\u003ci\u003e Dead Dames Don’t Sing\u003c\/i\u003e is typical pulp fodder: “Hard, fast, and deadly,” according to Daniel Pike, the rare book dealer who hires Kiley. What makes it unusual—and potentially valuable—is that the novel appears to have been written by the late poet William Pierce \u003ci\u003ebefore\u003c\/i\u003e he made a name for himself. Pierce’s bewitching socialite-cum-model daughter, Alexandra, insists that it’s genuine, but Kiley isn’t so sure. Something doesn’t feel right, but the deeper he digs, the more he wonders if poetry and pulp really are such strange bedfellows.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Hailed as “one of our most accomplished writers” by \u003ci\u003eThe Daily Telegraph\u003c\/i\u003e, John Harvey brings swinging London—both past and present—to life in this gripping novella.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Bibliomysteries are a series of short tales about deadly books, by top mystery authors.\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"MysteriousPress.com\/Open Road","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131382841584,"sku":"9781504045629","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781504045629_p0.jpg?v=1769897703","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781504045629","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
