Stanley’s Style: “Keep Cool, Mr. Jones”

Part of a 100th-birthday tribute to artist Robert Stanley.


Keep Cool, Mr. Jones, by Timothy Fuller (Dell, 1952). This is the fifth and final novel starring Boston investigator Edmund “Jupiter” Jones (not to be confused, apparently, with this brainy boy detective of that same name). Previous installments in the series included Three Thirds of a Ghost and Reunion with Murder, both released originally in 1941.
