Summary

When Matilda Benson solicits the help of Perry Mason, her request seems simple enough: cruise to a gambling ship moored just beyond the twelve-mile limit and buy back the IOUs signed by Miss Benson's niece. But after Mason reaches the floating casino, he discovers problems aplenty - most notably the ship's owner with a bullet hole through his head. Strangely enough, Matilda and her niece are also on board that night...when someone tosses a gun over the railing. Does Perry Mason's client have something to hide?

Awesome!

Couldn't stop. The characters are great, particularly the titular lady who is just perfect. This story has aged well and is a lot of fun. Great narration : all characters seem to come alive and none sound like stereotypes.
