The Case of the Runaway Corpse (Perry Mason Series)

About this book

Her husband was stealing her money while accusing her of a plot to poison him -- or so claims the frightened young Mrs. Myrna Davenport. She wants Perry Mason to find the incriminating note her husband left for the authorities accusing her of murder -- especially now that Davenport is dying. Perry finds the envelope but its filled with blank paper. Then Davenport does die or so everyone thinks until his alleged corpse climbs out a window and drives away -- straight into a prepared open grave in another county. With Davenport finally dead Perry could become a possible accessory to murder. And though the victim died twice Perry gets only one clear shot at saving his client -- and himself.
