Honey West is the nerviest, curviest P.I. in Los Angeles-or anywhere else for that matter. She"s a cross between James Bond and The Avengers" Emma Peel-a girl detective with the sleuthmanship of Mike Hammer and the measurements of Marilyn Monroe. This Girl for Hire is the first in a series of darkly funny and innuendo-laden crime novels originally published in the 1950s and 1960s. In this one, Honey finds herself playing strip poker with four murder suspects...and a deck that"s as stacked as she is!
