All The Flowers Are Dying
Matt Scudder - former cop and alcoholic - has had enough. He plans to wind up his investigations, concentrate on his AA meetings and his wife, Elaine. But he agrees to take on one last case, to check out a man that single woman Louise likes, but suspects is keeping something from her. Meanwhile on death row, prisoner Preston Applewhite protests his innocence, but unlike most, he finds someone to believe in him-eminent psychologist Arne Bodinson. But the psychologist isn't who he says he is. There's a killer out there, one who's been dormant for some time and he's on his way to New York to see Matt Scudder.

Jacqueline Susann
Valley Of The Dolls
Dolls - red or black, capsules or tablets, washed down with vodka or swallowed straight - are showbiz slang for tranquillizers, uppers and sleeping pills. For Anne, Jennifer and Neely, it doesn't matter how or which, as long as the pill bottle is within easy reach. Three heroines, one a model, one a singer and one an actress, become best friends when they are young and idealistic and struggling at the bottom of their professions. By the time they reach the top, they discover there's no place left to go but down - into the Valley of the Dolls.
• Jacqueline Susann's sensational novel crystallised the decadence of the 1960s and ushered in a whole new genre of mass-market fiction.
