Two full-length mysteries featuring Masao Masuto, a Nisei detective on the Beverley Hills police force. In "The Case of the Sliding Pool", the collapse of a swimming pool exposes the skeleton of a man. In "The Case of the Kidnapped Angel", Hollywood sex goddess, Angel Barton, is kidnapped.
"Masao Masuto is a Nisei detective on the Beverly Hills police force -- a cultured stranger in an even stranger land of traffic-clogged freeways, artery-clogging fast food...and brutal murders. Here, collected for the first time, are the two adventures that launched the popular crime-fiction series created by Howard Fast: In Samantha, a Hollywood film producer has been murdered -- the first in a series of violent deaths perpetrated by a killer calling herself ""Samantha."" Masuto must race the clock to stop her before more blood is shed. In The Case of the One-Penny Orange, a noted stamp dealer and his assistant are murdered, and the one clue that could bring a killer to justice is an 1847 postage stamp from the island of Mauritius -- one of the rarest, most famous stamps in the world."
