THE SEARCH FOR X-Y-Z
Ezra Jenkins, farmer, may have commited a felony when he signed his brother’s name to a land sale contract, and Wiscon City’s Kraut King, Herman Hieronymus, is determined that he suffer the consequences. So Ezra must find his brother X before time runs out. Luckily he has the citizens of the “Berlin of the West” to help him. But when he rents a room with a picture window but no glass in it he’s almost inviting someone to complicate matters with murder. And naturally, someone obliges—with a bow and arrow! This 326-page trade paperback contains the complete text of the novel written in 1942. |
