In 'No Crime In The Mountains' proceeds with an investigation despite the fact that his client, who had sent a retainer with his request for a meeting, turns up at the appointed place dead. 'I had a hundred dollars to earn, after all.' With a deceased gambler for a client, Evans should probably take it to heart when the constable of Puma Point, a tourist community, assures him that there's 'mightly little inducement to crime in the mountains.' But of course he doesn't and a case that begins with a few counterfeit bills unfolds into a series of murders with a Nazi connection. 'A night like this, ' says the constable, 'and it's got to be full of death.'
