Hillary Waugh
3/5 ( ratings)
Suspense novel from 1959 .
Jack, Gene, and Miles, a private eye, are sent to catch a mr. Bluebard, a man who marries rich women, takes a hue life insurance on them, and later kills them... so far this Bluebeard has killed at least six wives, and scammed at least 6 insurance companies. Now the last insurance company is very eager to catch and trap this man.

From the back cover:

"Coffee?" she asked.
Jack nodded and stared at her uneasily, sharply aware of the powerful pull of the soft graceful body not quite hidden by the thin robe.
"How did a doll like you come to take a job like this?"
"Why not?"
"It's a risky business marrying a man who kills his wives."
She shrugged.
"How you going to hook him?"
"I'll manage."
She would manage all right. The vision it conjured up filled Jack with jealousy - and fear.
"Okay" he snapped. "So you marry this homicidal creep. Then what?"
"When he tries to kill me, we catch him." She smiled up at him. "Cream and sugar?"

"The Eighth Mrs. Bluebeard.... a fast-paced thriller aout a fast-stepping Bluebeard who married only to murder'"; 'a real honey of a suspense yarn'. - Columbus Dispatch".
