An Algonquin Round Table Mystery

One must never pick up a stray piece of paper at the Algonquin Round Table—it might be the check. But when second-rate illustrator Ernie MacGuffin slips Dorothy Parker an envelope, only later does she discover it’s a suicide note: MacGuffin has leapt to his death from the Brooklyn Bridge!
Days later, his works have tripled in value, but something smells fishy to Dorothy. Accompanied by magician and skeptic Harry Houdini, she goes to a séance held by MacGuffin’s mistress, where Ernie’s ghostly voice seems eerily real. But that can’t be, can it?
In You Might As Well Die by J.J. Murphy, wisecracks and witicisms abound as Dorothy and her pals pursue the mystery—and money to pay their overflowing tab—through the streets of Manhattan.
