Re: RARA-AVIS: "Red Wind"



I have an old copy of "Red Wind" and a new version in
"Trouble Is My Business". In the latter, the book describes
it as a "Classic Marlowe Mystery". I'll cross check the
dates and the characters when I get home tonight
and I should have an idea by midnight or so.
Later, Paul.
