A hard-drinking reporter, a schizophrenic stripper, a disgraced psychoanalyst, and a mysterious serial killer who razors his female victims to death, collide with deadly and shocking reverberations in Fredric Brown’s masterful crime classic THE SCREAMING MIMI, filmed in 1958 by Gerd Oswald, and the inspiration for Dario Argento’s legendary 1970 giallo production "The Bird With The Crystal Plumage". This special ebook edition of THE SCREAMING MIMI also includes the bonus of Fredric Brown’s 1942 short story “Satan’s Search Warrant”, another hard-boiled crime classic with typical violence, murder and twisting plot convolutions.
Mimi's screaming drives her family crazy until she learns to use her voice in another way.
Something very terrible happens.
Frank Ramos thinks he knows the answer to an alleged suicide -- and the police are having a hard time identifying a motive if it is murder. If it is suicide, though, where is the gun? And is it connected to other murders?
The tale begins over three-hundred years ago, when the Fair People—the goblins, fairies, dragons, and other fabled and fantastic creatures of a dozen lands—fled the Old World for the New, seeking haven from the ways of Man. With them came their precious jewels: diamonds, rubies, emeralds, pearls... But then the Fair People vanished, taking with them their twelve fabulous treasures. And they remained hidden until now... Across North America, these twelve treasures, over ten-thousand dollars in precious jewels in 1982 dollars, are buried. The key to finding each can be found within the twelve full-color paintings and verses of THE SECRET. Are you smart enough? THE SECRET: A TREASURE HUNT was published in 1982. The year before publication, the author and publisher Byron Preiss had traveled to 12 locations in the continental U.S. (and possibly Canada) to secretly bury a dozen ceramic casques. Each casque contained a small key that could be redeemed for one of 12 jewels Preiss kept in a safe deposit box in New York. The key to finding the casques was to match one of 12 paintings to one of 12 poetic verses, solve the resulting riddle, and start digging. Since 1982, only two of the 12 casques have been recovered. The first was located in Grant Park, Chicago, in 1984 by a group of students. The second was unearthed in 2004 in Cleveland by two members of the Quest4Treasure forum.
