 "Deadly
Dolly"
by Lew Lessing
Athena Books, 1961
The back cover reads:
"Paul Lowe got the message when he heard the animal-like noises from beyond
the door. He remembered his dancer-girlfriend's fondness for couches and
men with imagination. Paul got drunk to forget. But he woke up to brutal
murders, a three-quarter million dollar double-cross, a stream of violence
and three women who would stop at nothing--absolutely nothing--to get what
they wanted." And the front cover reads: "The cover reads: "A sexy exotic-dancer
who craved men with imagination, Olga had some ideas of her own when she
started a three-quarter million dollar double cross." A TV newsman, a dead
stripper, a teddy bear filled with heroine, double crossing and a finale
punctuated with a gun shot...the makings for a classic paperback.
An exotic dancer goes by the name "Olga?" Only in a tawdry paperback could
a book about a woman named "Olga" be called "Deadly Dolly." Ya gotta love
it.
