Free Fall

Story 1 in the “Tales of Suspense” Series

Della Adderly was a 20-something aspiring art director who was anxious to make her mark in the advertising world of the late 1960s. Tired of laboring behind men who took the credit for her work, she took a risk and strode into the office of Miss Veronica Landon—a sharp, no-nonsense creative director for one of the fastest-rising agencies in Manhattan—and demanded an interview.

After their meeting, Della strolled down Fifth Avenue—primarily to show off her new outfit—and then settled into a seat at a little sidewalk French bistro. As she was noshing on a cheese sandwich, there was a scream from bystanders and seconds later a body fell at her feet from 20 stories above. It was Veronica Landon. Accident? Suicide? Murder? The mystery weaves its way through a colorful cast of characters to a shocking, head-turning conclusion high above the Manhattan skyline.
