Death comes staccato Book

I read the whole series when they were originally published in the 1980s. I enjoyed them then and I enjoyed rereading this one, which I found in a charity shop. There were several female detective stories around then including Val Mcdermid's two series, one featuring Lindsay Gordon I think she was called and another one with a P.I. called Kate. Everything now seems to be based on police stories Including on TV. Perhaps because so many thrillers are now preoccupied with murder as this story was then but private investigators would be involved with a wider variety of cases. But I enjoyed revisiting the 1980s and will look out for any more in this series which I suspect is now out of print.
