«Cinco perfumes y un crimen» is the crime novel by Peter Cheyney published by Bruguera in 1982 in paperback (96 pages, in Spanish).
A man is found dead with an English cigarette butt on his jacket, a detail that doesn't fit because the victim only smoked American tobacco. Vallon takes the case and, using five perfumes and some barrels of alcohol, uncovers a blackmail and murder ring.
Volume 49 of Bruguera's Club del Misterio collection. Original work: «You Can Call It a Day» (1949), translated into Spanish by José María Claramunda.
For fans of classic noir fiction and followers of the Club del Misterio collection.
Reginald Evelyn Peter Southouse-Cheyney was a British crime fiction writer who flourished between 1936 and 1951. Cheyney is perhaps best known for his short stories and novels about agent/detective Lemmy Caution, which, starting in 1953, were adapted into a series of French movies, all starring Eddie Constantine. Another popular creation was the private detective Slim Callaghan who also appeared in a series of novels and subsequent film adaptations.
