A thirty-story apartment hotel has become the largest haunted house in New York City, after numerous construction-related deaths and accidents. When his interior designer friend asks him to help, psychiatrist (and trouble-shooter) F. Lance Henry decides to nose around. He arrives at the building just as an electrician meets his spark-filled demise. But was it an accident, or something more sinister? As Dr. Henry continues his investigation, he finds himself facing an intricate, carefully-planned, and malevolent design for death . . .
Clare Casler Saunders (1900-1986) was born in Albion, Wisconsin, and graduated from the University of Wisconsin school of advertising. She started out as the advertising manager for a department store, operated her own advertising agency in Madison, worked for a theatrical design firm in Chicago, then moved to New York to become an interior decorator (after studying under Norman Bel Geddes). She had always wanted to be a writer, and co-authored her first mystery with Babs Lee (Measured for Murder), who was beauty editor for Vogue.
Design for Treachery was published in 1947.
