The Vixen by Carter Brown

A real hot number turns a up a cold corpse and Lieutenant Al Wheeler zeroes in on a garment trade racket only to get tagged for murder.

Horwitz Edition
Too many girls can be  too much of a good thing, especially  when the redhead is a liar, the brunette is frigid, and the blonde is dead. So dead that someone had doped, strangled, and killer her just to make sure. Fast-talking, Al Wheeler, tangles with a bedlam of babes, a garment-trade crime king, a malevolent millionaire, and an efficient murderer who deals in death at a discount.

Robert McGinnis Cover
There had been to many men in her life. And most of them wanted her dead. So did two women.
