The case of the sulky girl -- The case of the careless kitten -- The case of the fiery fingers.

Four riveting courtroom thrillers in one vol., by the best selling writer of his time.

"When Matilda Benson solicits the help of Perry Mason, her request seems simple enough: cruise to a gambling ship moored just beyond the twelve-mile limit and buy back the IOUs signed by Miss Benson's niece.

Strangely enough, Matilda and her niece are also on board that night...when someone tosses a gun over...

"Thanks to a bungled robbery at a fancy hotel, the already-married Eva Griffin has been caught in the company of a prominent congressman. To protect the politico, Eva's ready to pay the editor of a sleazy tabloid his hush money. But Perry Mason has other plans. He tracks down the phantom fat cat who secretly runs the blackmailing tabloid-- only to discover a shocking scoop"--Page 4 of cover.
