Another Look: “Border Town Girl”

Warning: Artistic inspiration drawn from book titles may vary.



Left: Border Town Girl, by John D. MacDonald (Fawcett Gold Medal, 1956), with a typically sexy cover illustration by Robert McGinnis. Right: Border Town Girl, by John D. MacDonald (Robert Hale, UK, 1970); cover art by Barbara Walton. It was a mention in Mike Ripley’s “Getting Away with Murder” column for Shots that reminded me of this “fast-moving tale.”
