Westlake in Sweden: Murder Among Children (1971)

This Roy Lichtenstein ripoff from 1971 is by one Ulf Castelius. Publishers Gebers for a while published these weird hardcover twofers - sort of like those old Ace Doubles, except in respectable looking hardcovers with dust covers. This title translates as YOUNG SUDDEN DEATH. It was coupled with a Kelley Roos title whose original tilte is somehow missing. Apart from three Tucker Coe titles, the most interesting titles in this peculiar series were a bunch of Helen Nielsen titles.

Ah, pop art:
