The Case of the Terrified Typist is a little more than half-way through Erle Stanley Gardner's Perry Mason series. (Don't believe the webpage at Amazon, which says it's #5 in the series - that's just #5 among the ones that Open Road/Mysterious Press have republished, which is a tiny subset of the more than 70 Mason titles that Gardner wrote.) In any case, though, Terrified Typist is on sale today at Kindle US for $1.99.

Quote:
The Edgar Award–winning author’s tale of a missing woman and a crime ring, featuring the lawyer and detective who inspired the HBO limited series.

Defense lawyer Perry Mason needs a temporary typist, but the one he hires turns out to be more temporary than expected. When she disappears, leaving a couple of diamonds behind in her haste, Mason winds up taking on a new client: a gem importer in his office building who’s been charged with smuggling and murder. But if Mason’s going to untangle this case, finding the typist is key . . .

This mystery is part of Edgar Award–winning author Erle Stanley Gardner’s classic, long-running Perry Mason series, which has sold three hundred million copies and serves as the inspiration for the HBO show starring Matthew Rhys and Tatiana Maslany.

“Millions of Americans never seem to tire of Gardner’s thrillers.” —The New York Times
