The Case of the Dubious Bridegroom

By Erle Stanley Gardner

Book Overview

A lawyer is sucked into a couple's hostile divorce in this mystery with "a stellar ending" from the original detective series that inspired the HBO show (Kirkus Reviews).

Edward Garvin is a very successful businessman with a very unhappy ex-wife--who wants his money. So Garvin calls on lawyer Perry Mason to protect his company from her schemes, and ensure the divorce they'd gotten in Mexico is actually finalized.

But when Garvin's former spouse is struck down by a killer, Mason's client becomes the chief suspect. Fortunately, the attorney "comes up with dazzling answers" to the mystery . . . (The New York Times).

This whodunit is part of Edgar Award-winning author Erle Stanley Gardner's classic, long-running Perry Mason series, which has sold three hundred million copies and serves as the inspiration for the HBO show starring Matthew Rhys and Tatiana Maslany.

Perry Mason's Love Affair?

One of the charms of Mason Mystery is the strange opening. This may be one of the strangest; when Mason was working in midnight, a mysterious girl was prowling on the fire escape; Mason tried to catch her who slapped his face and went away; the newspaper reported the incident as Mason's love affair and Della mocked him "it is not safe to trust you alone in the office." I enjoyed this opening very much. I also enjoyed the whole story.
