Rainbow Book No. 126 Paperback Original (1952). Digest Size. Cover Art by George Gross

“SHE-DEVIL” by Robert Turner

PRETTY, PASSIONATE, PROVOCATIVE AND DEADLY AS A RATTLESNAKE

From the back cover:

Lorelei in modern dress . . .

Nick Janis was a horn man with hot lips and a big future – until the day he met Elsa and fell under her spell. For Elsa’s exquisite face and supple young body masked the soul of a she-devil. Like a Lorelei in modern dress, Elsa lured men into a bottomless sea of brutal violence and sin from which there was no escape. Even after Nick stumbled on the evil secret of Elsa’s past, he found himself powerless to break away from her. Not before she had broken every commandment in the Book and drawn him inextricably into her own sinful way of life was he able, at last, to shake the stardust from his eyes and see her for what she really was. “SHE-DEVIL” is a haunting, unforgettable symphony of blues whose theme of youthful hopes and dreams and intermittent despair persists beneath the hot, shrill overtones of lust and violence in which this highly absorbing novel abounds.
