The Girl in the Yellow Bikini

By: Phillip Margolin

Narrated by: Austin Cooper

I've always thought of myself as a fan more than a writer. Never in a million years did I imagine that I'd ever get my fiction published, let alone have all of my books become New York Times bestsellers. It wasn't until I was in my 30's that I published my first short story, The Girl in the Yellow Bikini. It was released in 1974 in Mike Shayne Mystery Magazine. In mid-2002, it was re-printed as a booklet and shrink-wrapped to the French edition of Elle fashion magazine. I hope both new and old fans will enjoy it!

A Very Good And Gripping Debut Short Story

This is the first published short story authored by Phillip Margolin. I found it quite gripping. The story has some short comings, but all in all is very good. At times it had a sort of "Poe" like feel to it as far as I am concerned. I am really glad that I listened to this short story. Thank You.

The perils of being a stalker

Great short from the seventies about a stalker pulled into danger, ala Rear Window. The twists are rather obvious, but with the excellent narration and quick pace, this makes for a fun summer snack. This has Hitchcock-level violence and is free of cussing, sex, politics, or religion.
