It is the smell of death ... The Oxnan hotel stank with the stale odor of cheap whiskey, cheap two-bit racketeers, cheap unwashed women. But behind the rotting front, behind the peeling-plastered walls, a big time syndicate did its filthy business. The payoff was in the millions. Edna Loomis - and there was nothing cheap about her - set out to get it all. Her method was simple . . . she used the weapon of her flesh. But she made one mistake. His name was Peone, of the drugged eyes and the slender knife. Edna Loomis was beautiful, ambitious woman. Peone was a coked-up killer!… (más)

Trimble wrote mysteries, westerns, science fiction, spy stories, and more. He churned out more than eighty novels in his heyday. Trimble was not consistently good, but he was right on the money enough that it's worth grabbing any of his books you can get your hands on. Maybe
you'll find a gem like this one.

Blondes Are Skin Deep is a tough-guy, hardboiled rackets novel taking
place in the Pacific Northwest. There's a lot of rushing around between hotels and apartments and a bevy of tough no nonsense hard types who don't trust each other when someone has made off with a six-figure sum and bodies start falling. There's something about Trimble's
tough writing that catches you and makes you keep reading this.

There's the blonde bombshell model, the hulking hotel majordomo, the
ex-con clerk with the blade, the rackets boss in his suite of rooms, the debonair heartbreaker who disappears with the heiress, and the tough guy whose got to get some answers before Police Detective Powers hauls him away.

Tough, hardnosed, with the guys trading blows, knives flying through the air, skulls being cracked, femme Fatales aplenty. ( )
