The Body Beautiful

Robert Graham is mugged when he's mistaken for a stalker instead of a
law-abiding detective chief inspector. His loyal but over-enthusiastic dog
inflicts an embarrassing wound on Graham's atacker. a peeping tom
outsmarts the police force. and a fast-talking barmaid disappears just like
her one-time husband, the paroled rapist.

But it's someone quite different who dies. Shirley (alias Davinia) West had
hoped to make her fortune as a beauty queen. Instead she makes the headlines
when she's brutally murdered right under the noses of the police, who were
supposedly trying to thwart the stalker, the peeping tom and the missing rapist
at the time...
