Young Marjorie Clune's best asset is her greatest misfortune: a pair of exquisite legs. They attract the perfect heel, a self-professed movie promoter named Frank Patton, whose scam seems even more flawless than Marjorie's lissome limbs. When the hype clears, the local chamber of commerce is many dollars poorer, Marjorie's been hung out to dry - and Patton's been found with the knife of Marjorie's lover implanted in his chest....But will a single cunning lie her lawyer, Perry Mason, tells catch a killer and free her from a nightmare of accusation?

Alexander Cendese does a marvelous job narrating the Perry Mason Series and I hope the balance of the series will soon be re-released with him as the narrator. No one else can replace him after listening to him on the 50 or so audio books that were available. The Lucky Legs book is another must read/listen book in the series. I wish I'd discovered the book series a year or so ago, I would then have purchased all 84 or more books in the series!!! I listen to the 50 some books I do have from book 1 on through-- in order (of the ones I have), and then by the time I get through the 50 books I can start over, there is always something you miss and can pick up on the 2nd/3rd time around. haha. I love the TV series, but the books narrated by Alexander Cendese are so very much better!!!

Love Perry Mason books

Mason Puts Himself In Trouble With The Law. Who did the crime, and why did Mason look like he was covering it up. I am really enjoying the language and social ideas of the 1930's from books written during the period.

I am going to read all of the Perry Mason novels. Mason is bigger than life, and his integrity with his code of helping his clients to the best of his ability sometimes makes him bend or flat-out break the law to find the legit culprit. The Case of the Lucky Legs is a well-thought-out plot. The story has excellent narration and good mystery, so readers will not be disappointed.

Erle Stanley Gardner I really only knew his name from Perry Mason The classic TV show as the creator of this Character. I have always wanted to read these books however as with life you can't always fit in every book you would like. Thankfully I saw these on Audible and I have truly enjoyed these stories. So many books in this series which I love. This story was so well written and so well done. The Narration was incredible. If you love the classic Perry Mason TV show I think you'll really enjoy this book. I highly recommend it.

Brilliant story telling

I prefer the earlier Perry Mason, and Nero Wolfe stories. Putting aside modern social mores, and remembering the time period of these stories, and how they reflect a different time in “the big cities”, they can be such fun. From the “dames, and private
d-cks”, to the dialogue, sprinkled with the slang of the decade, I love them! There is no gore, no descriptive sex; just innuendo and using one’s imagination. It’s easy to get the drift without the authors being heavy handed with descriptions.

Like a 1930’s movie

The book is a window into 1937 with speakeasies, cars with sideboards and cranks and engines that had to be kept warm if you might need to go somewhere in a hurry, and mail planes you could book a seat on. It’s also one of the few Perry Mason novels with no courtroom action. It was fun though and drew me along. The narrator distinguished all the characters well - he did some great voices - except for the women. I’m afraid his rendition of Della Street took some getting used to.

An excellent reading of this mystery, one of the few cases which does not end up in a courtroom. Plenty of hard hitting drama , action, clues and red herrings to keep you guessing at who is nabbed for murder for killing a slim bucket of a human being.

Which three pairs of lucky legs committed the murder of not?
