There are freakin’ hundreds of these ‘Baron’ novels knocking about (see below), but the sharp, cartoon-ish cover art on this one particularly caught my eye.
Probably not what Anthony Morton and his publishers were going for, but seeing these on the shelves always puts me in mind of the Baron that Ross Johnson and the late Alex Chilton were invoking here;
"The Baron was kiddin’ a minute ago, The Baron's gon' get serious with you now!"
