When Con Satterlee picked up the half-intoxi-cated blonde in the Bamboo Bar, Griselda was annoyed. When he walked out with the blonde, leaving Griselda flat, she was furious. She was frightened, too, returning alone to the isolated, ramshackle beach cottage. And this was to have been their second honeymoon! Con came back rattling a handful of shells which he said he had taken from the blonde's revolver. But the blonde didn't come back. The police found her corpse the next morning. And then Con w When Con Satterlee picked up the half-intoxi-cated blonde in the Bamboo Bar, Griselda was annoyed. When he walked out with the blonde, leaving Griselda flat, she was furious. She was frightened, too, returning alone to the isolated, ramshackle beach cottage. And this was to have been their second honeymoon! Con came back rattling a handful of shells which he said he had taken from the blonde's revolver. But the blonde didn't come back. The police found her corpse the next morning. And then Con was arrested. That left Griselda alone, behind a door with a lock that a bent hairpin could open. Quite defenseless, she had to face the sinister Major Pembrooke, who wanted something from Con; beautiful, lying Kathie; Dare, so very possessive as far as Con was concerned; and the debonair Kew, who was intent on helping Griselda, for selfish reasons. It was super-colossal and it took that colossal Tibetan detective, Chin Kwang Kham, to reduce it to simple murder and make the murderer visible to all. About Vintage Paperback Pulp Fiction: A new revolution was underway at the start of the 1940s in America-a paperback revolution that would change the way publishers would produce and distribute books and the reading public would consume them. In 1939 a new publishing company-Pocket Books-stormed onto the scene with the publication of its first paperbound book. Unlike hardback books, these pulp paperbacks were available in drugstores, newsstands, bus and train stations, and cigar shops. The American public could not get enough of them. The popular pulp genres reflected the tastes of Americans during the 1930s and 1940s-mysteries, thrillers, and "hardboiled detective" stories were all the rage. In the early 1950s new pulp fiction sub-genres emerged-science fiction, lesbian fiction, juvenile delinquent and sleaze, for instance-that would tantalize readers with gritty, realistic and lurid stories never seen before. Publishers had come to realize that sex sells.
