Kiss'd to Sleep

About the Book

What begins as an admiring, wondering attitude toward her professor by a talented and beautiful co-ed shifts into a lustful pursuit for a top-level job in public relations.

In a growing mutual enchantment lies a pattern of hidden agendas, a haughty disregard for professional values and finally—a shocking dark side of the co-ed beauty is revealed and leads to murder in a dank bootlegger’s hideout beneath a luxurious north-shore Long Island estate.

This is a brilliant “tell-it-the-way-it was” mystery novel chronicled by master storyteller Donald Krist that informs, entertains, and lyrically spells out how public relations people were taught and what they did in the 1950’s when PR was just reaching its maturity as a profession.
