New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce, 1942. Octavo, cloth. First edition. "Sleek, sinister if slight entertainment as Maggie, pretty maid, accompanies her Miss Dolly to an isolated boathouse, watches Miss Dolly get in deep with a raffish set, puzzles over her past, her present, and her penchant for excitement and extravagance, and sees two men who come to fetch her murdered. Not her best, but fine fare." - Kirkus review, 1 December, 1942. [Reference: Hubin, p. 408. Pronzini and Muller, 1001 Midnights, The Aficionado's Guide to Mystery and Detective Fiction, p. 374].
