The body on the bench

By Dorothy B. Hughes

Subjects: Large type books, Fiction, thrillers, suspense, Detective and mystery stories

Description: When bad weather forces his flight to Los Angeles to land outside of town, Steve Wintress agrees to share a car with three of his fellow travelers: a timid young soldier, a powerful Justice Department official, and a taciturn Hollywood beauty. They don’t know it yet, but all four strangers have something in common—a top-secret report smuggled out of East Germany--and one of them might kill to get it.
