Roosevelt, Elliott (1910 – 1990)

Murder and the First Lady [An Eleanor Roosevelt Mystery]

New York: St. Martin's Press, 1984. Book Club Edition [BCE]. Hardcover with Dust Jacket.

A Fine Hardcover in a Fine Dust Jacket. A New Giftable Book. Book Club Edition.

It's 1939 and a young White House staffer, congressman's son Philip Garber, has been found dead in the apartment of Pamela Rush-Hodgeborne, one of the First Lady's secretaries.

The plot involves a jewel theft and false identities. You'll get to meet a few seedy characters from the gambling world. Mrs. Roosevelt mingles with these people in an effort to get information, and it's rather amusing.
