In this classic crime novel from the creator of Mike Shayne, a writer and an El Paso cop chase a serial killer who taunts them with ads in the local paper.   Action Western novelist Asa Baker is in bad need of a good story when he gets a call from his old friend, Jerry Burke. One of El Paso's top cops, Burke is about to drag Baker into a plot more dangerous--and outrageous--than anything the Old West has to offer.   A troubling personal ad has appeared in the local paper. Addressed to Burke, it warns that someone will die tonight at 11:41 p.m. And as promised, the body appears at 11:41 sharp--setting Burke and Baker on the hunt for an ingenious serial killer who advertises murder, always delivers on time, and never leaves a trail.   Praise for Brett Halliday's Mike Shayne Mysteries   "[Mike Shayne is] one of the best of the tough sleuths." --The New York Times   "Unlike anything else in the genre." --L. J.
