Trial by Terror

The elite Coral Isles Hotel in Key Westwas crammed with vacationers. Bronson Wells, an ex-communist turned red-hunter, was one of them--until they found him murdered... The guests included a judge up for a confirmation hearing for an important post, a concert pianist, an artist, a publisher, among others, including Lt. Hiemrich, there to recover from a wound obtained in the line of duty. Somewhere among these wronged, bitter people he would find the killer.
