☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeYoung King Cole #4 is a Detective Tales anthology featuring multiple stories. One story involves a Hollywood film production where Miss Gayle and Hartley Braker clash over billing and salary, with tensions escalating to threats of poison and sabotage on set. Another story features Homer K. Beagle, "The Demon Detective," described as an impetuous detective whose investigations frequently end badly, particularly when human lives are at stake, as illustrated by a case involving mysterious supernatural phenomena near a stone wall.
Inspector Klooz stumbles into a dentist's office desperate for relief, only to discover that the tooth-happy Dr. Molar Malloy is actually a diamond smuggler using patients' molars as hiding spots for stolen gems. When a robbery investigation brings the inspector and the good doctor together, Klooz's blundering detective work tangles the case in hilarious ways as he tries to solve the crime without realizing the loot is stashed right in his own mouth. A slapstick romp through crooked dentistry and bumbling police work that proves sometimes the criminal's best alibi is the detective himself!
