THE DEADLY DAMES   Montreal is in the midst of a heatwave. And if that weren't miserable enough, private eye Bill Yates is hired by a lush to tail his wayward wife. Yates hates divorce cases. But this case has more than meets the eye. The lush's rich mother-in-law wants to hire Yates away from the case. Then she gets hit by a bus and killed. The lush fires Yates. His wife, Gloria, promptly hires Yates herself. Gloria's big sister, Fay, gets in on the act. Things get complicated. And between the boyfriend who wants to rough him up, the crooked cop who wants to bust him, the night club owner that wants to kill him, and several other characters who all seem to want to threaten Yates's personal health, the heatwave is the least of his troubles.   A DUM-DUM FOR THE PRESIDENT   Montreal P.I. Mike Garfin doesn't believe Martha Davenport when she comes to him to help her locate her wayward sister. Later that evening, he runs into an old friend at a local bar, who invites him to a swank cocktail party. Garfin knows he's being set-up for something, and once there, he meets Tremblay, who takes him next door and introduces him to a mysterious Latin American gentleman known as Mr. Mirek. Garfin is asked to guard a key. The next day he discovers that Mirek is a powerful ex-president named Manuel Bordera. Something doesn't feel right. Then Miss Davenport comes back with a new story. And in no time at all, Garfin is being smacked, shot at, strangled and seduced as he tries to get to the bottom of the whole affair.        3
