The Case of the Two-headed Idiot
(1960)(The eighth book in the Circus series)
A novel by Harry Stephen Keeler
What would you do if you were Angus MacWhorter, owner of the Biggest Little Circus on Earth, and you'd been offered $3000 for just ten minutes alone with the two-headed child who at one time was the star feature of the circus? Why, you'd send your right hand man, Brock Colburn, to Chicago to check up on the offering party. The trouble is, Brock is wanted in Chitown for an old felony he didn't commit, and any sleuthing he does is going to have to be under deep cover. If only Brock could meet some sympathetic person who could help him, someone like Ardis Waring - Mrs. Ardis Waring. And let's not even mention the Chinese laundryman known as Ah Hell. Yes, Ah Hell. Let's don't mention him.
This is one of the first of a complete collection of Harry Stephen Keeler novels that Ramble House plans to make available in Kindle format for $4.99. Now you can read those wacky Keeler novels that were never published back in the 40, 50s and 60s when he wrote them. Mike Nevins saved all of his works from oblivion and introduces this Screwball Circus novel.
"Once you read a Keeler you're never the same again. Sad, really." -- Knees Calhoon
